Would have done a better job than Hyypia.
Would have been able to call on some loan deal favours from Everton and Man United as well.

If he was, I think we were looking at the wrong Neville.

From Twitter:

Phil Neville [MENTION=16974]fizzer[/MENTION]18 has just said on @bbc5live that he made his first cup of coffee ever a few days ago. It was instant.

He's the kind of guy I am sure would make a shit manager.

Probably. Most successful managers were players who didn't win much / had careers that largely went unnoticed. Struggling to think of many who had similar careers to P Neville who went on to be great managers.

I was thinking more of his contribution to MOTD.

That's like asking the Chuckle Brothers to run the FA.

It would be quite nice to hear whether he was offered something or not, but I imagine it would not be healthy for the club to contradict him, if it were not the case.
