Xherdan Shaqiri: Gary Neville may regret his words about Liverpool forward’s professionalism after brace against Manchester United
Liverpool’s bid to win the Premier League title cleared a massive hurdle as they battled to a 3-1 win over Manchester United at Anfield.Xherdan Shaqiri’s second-half double made the difference after Jesse Lingard cancelled out Sadio Mane’s opener.2

Shaqiri injected some much-needed creativity when he came on

The Swiss international has made a great start to his Reds career after signing for 13million from relegated Stoke in the summer.It was a move that attracted plenty of criticism including from Shaqiri’s former Potters team-mate Charlie Adam, who told talkSPORT the forward let his club down last season.And Neville echoed this belief when working as a pundit for ITV during the World Cup, questioning Shaqiri’s professionalism. Neville said: “Im not a fan of Shaqiri to be honest with you. I think that was, to be fair, worse by the fact that he distanced himself from his team-mates as Stoke. They were unprofessional last season, Stoke. Theres no doubt, and he epitomised it.He could score the goal of the tournament and he could have the most amazing game.But he could also be there for three matches, do nothing and just amble and wobble around.To be honest with you, with him, players like that I cant have. I struggle with it.”2

Shaqiri’s ability to make an impact on big games has been questioned in the past

But could the former United defender be forced to go back on what he said?Well, it’s not clear if he’s totally convinced by Shaqiri yet but Neville’s fellow Sky Sports pundit and Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher couldn’t help but have a slight dig when handing Shaqiri the man-of-the-match award after the game!

"@GNev2 was going to give it to you but he didn't want to come down and face you." A bit of mischief from @Carra23 as he presents @XS_11official with his Man of the Match award!
