Quote


"You shiver just at the thought of being here; I want to play with that atmosphere surrounding me."
Phil Neville on playing at Old Trafford

"Once we're on the pitch it's just like he's another player. You can't treat him as your brother. I think when we played in the Youth Team together, I used to have a go at him more then anyone because he was my brother. The other lads sorted me out on that one."
Gary Neville on his brother Phil

"I don't think Phil ever scores a goal, to be honest. He scored one once in the under-elevens! At school he was renowned for scoring own goals!"
Gary Neville on Phil
