GARY NEVILLE and Jamie Carragher waved goodbye to the Premier League season by rowing over their 2025 team of the year.

The Sky Sports pundits could only agree on FIVE players on Monday Night Football, with host Dave Jones forced to play peacekeeper.

Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher have named their teams of the seasonAhead of the final day, Neville and Carragher gave out their end of season awards, as well as their teams of this campaign.

The pundits agreed on five players in their sides, which were listed in 4-3-3 formations –  and that not one single member of Manchester United’s or Manchester City’s squads made the cut.

One of those players was Daniel Munoz at right back – who Carragher hailed as “outstanding” and ideal for Ruben Amorim’s 3-4-3 set up.

Elsewhere, Nottingham Forest’s Nikola Milenkovic got the nod in defence alongside Liverpool‘s title-winning captain Virgil van Dijk.

While there were no agreements in midfield, both had Mohamed Salah on the right of attack and Newcastle‘s Alexander Isak leading the line. 

Neville went first with the remaining players, picking Matz Sels in goal, after his “special” Nottingham Forest season.

He picked out Liverpool target Milos Kerkez at left back, accepting that the Reds are likely to buy him, and Bryan Mbeumo at left wing.

The Man Utd legend’s midfield trio was made up of Youri Tielemans, Bruno Guimaraes and Ryan Gravenberch.

Carragher also chose a Magpies midfielder, but picked out one of Guimaraes’ partners in Sandro Tonali, who has been a mainstay in a holding role in Newcastle‘s Champions League push.

The handbags came out when Carragher named Morgan Gibbs-White on the left and Myles Lewis-Skelly as that sided full back.

Carragher couldn’t believe that Neville ignored Lewis-Skelly from his XI, after naming the Arsenal teenager as the Young Player of the Year.

Defending his Gibbs-White inclusion, Carragher said: “The league is missing a world class left winger.

“Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz are not Sadio Mane or Eden Hazard. He could play there. Pep Guardiola likes him and that will do for me.”

Neville also gave Arne Slot the best newcomer award, but voted for Nuno Espirito Santo as the manager of the season.

With Liverpool wrapping up the title two weeks ago, the final Champions League places are all that’s left to play for.

Arsenal secured their place in Europe‘s elite competition with a 1-0 win over Newcastle on Sunday.

That leaves the Magpies, Chelsea, Aston Villa, Man City and Forest to battle it out for the remaining three positions on the final day.

Meanwhile, Man Utd got the vote from both pundits as the biggest underachievers of the season, with Neville saying that winning the Europa League would be a “silver lining in a dark cloud”.
