Gary Neville frantically shovels snow back ON to pitch as fans say Man Utd icon ‘doing his best to get match called off’
GARY NEVILLE frantically shovelled snow ONTO the Anfield pitch ahead of Manchester United’s visit to the ground.
The Red Devils take on Liverpool in the Premier League this afternoon.
There had been concerns that the match would be called off due to the adverse weather.
Two pitch inspections have already taken place which have led to the decision for the match to go ahead.
However, Neville was clearly in favour of the game being postponed due to poor form of Man United.
Liverpool are the overwhelming favourites to win the game and the Man United legend tried to take matters into his own hands.
As Jamie Carragher helped shovel snow off the pitch, Neville could be seen shovelling it back on.
Sky Sports shared the video on social media, and fans have all reacted in the same way.
One posted: “Gary on his mission postponement.”
A second wrote: “Dude trying so hard.”

A third commented: “Cmon Gary believe in us more.”
A fourth said: “Even Manchester United legends know they are so rubbish.”
Another added: “Neville doing his best to get match called off.”
Man United’s clash with Liverpool has been confirmed despite three EFL fixtures being postponed.
League Two clashes between Chesterfield and Gillingham, as well as Fleetwood versus AFC Wimbledon.
A late call was also made to call off Newport County‘s fixture against Morecambe.
Three Sporting stars Amorim could swoop for after joining Man Utd
RUBEN AMORIM has ruled out poaching any of his Sporting Lisbon players in the January transfer window.
But the Portuguese side’s chiefs expect Amorim will come calling in the summer – with his cheque book wide open.
Here’s are three Sporting starts United could swoop for… but they won’t come cheap:
VIKTOR GYOKERES
Age: 26
Position: Striker
Cost: £84million
Swede has shone since joining Sporting last summer from Coventry — catching the eye of all Europe’s top clubs.
Hit 43 goals in 50 games last season and boasts 18 strikes already this term.
GONCALO INACIO
Age: 23
Position: Defender
Cost: £50million
Ball-playing centre-back was handed his debut by Amorim and has since become a key figure in Sporting’s recent title successes.
Can also slot in at left-back if required and has 12 caps for Portugal.
MORTEN HJULMAND
Age: 25
Position: Midfield
Cost: £40million
Dane is one of the top holding midfielders in Portugal — and made skipper by Amorim.
He could be the man to replace Casemiro.
