Nev: I'm absolutely delirious
Manchester United went top of the Premier League after winning 1-0 at Burnley on Tuesday night.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side are now three points ahead of their weekend opponents, and Neville did not pass up on the opportunity to get carried away and let Carragher know the standings.
- Jamie Carragher: Shockwaves if Man Utd win at Anfield
- Graeme Souness: Liverpool will be nervous, but should edge it
- Paul Pogba: We will find another way to celebrate and be happy
"Play the message I sent you this morning," Neville asked Carragher. "I woke up this morning absolutely delirious.
"Three points clear...of the greatest Liverpool team of all time!" the video played, with Carragher showing it to Neville and Jones.
Carra: Keane was United's standout player
There have been some memorable players from these matches in the years gone by, and more importantly from both of these sides when they were at their very best. Carragher shares who one of his favourite players from Manchester United is.
"I would say [Roy] Keane, not just because he is our mate on Sky Sports and I am trying to get in his good books! He was a great player but the mentality of wanting to win was our type of player. We all wanted that, we were not the silky players.
"That winning mentality, and to do it week in week out. Man Utd have had great players, but I would have always gone with Keane. There are so many which you could choose from the 1990s era going into the 2000s. He was there a long time and a lot of their success was built form him."
