Gary Neville saw something ‘devastating’ at Anfield on Sunday – Liverpool fans will agree

Gary Neville described a Liverpool fan banner reading 'A generation of supporters have been cheated' as 'devastating' following Manchester City's 3-0 victory at Anfield. The match marked the first outing for both sides since an independent commission found Manchester City guilty of breaching Premier League financial rules between 2009 and 2018. Liverpool supporters displayed protest banners and chanted 'cheats' throughout the latter stages of the fixture.

Speaking on his podcast, Neville stated that the banner reflected the national mood and noted that a 'dark cloud' looms over Manchester City despite moving three points clear at the top of the table. The Empire of the Kop notes that even rival supporters sympathized with Liverpool following the defeat, which also featured a red card for midfielder Ryan Gravenberch.
