The Reds are one of six clubs – along with Manchester United Manchester City, Chelsea, Tottenham, and Arsenal – who confirmed on Sunday that they are set to become founding members of a new competition that would see them face a selection of the continent’s biggest sides on a weekly basis.

Neville made his feelings towards the plan very clear during his co-commentary of Manchester United’s 3-1 win over Burnley this weekend.

“Manchester United – 100 years, born out of workers. And they are breaking away into a league without competition, that they can’t be relegated from?

Writing on his personal Twitter account, Neville said “Leeds players should walk to the side of the pitch and just let them keep scoring!

"They don’t want competition...”
