Sky Sports pundits Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher have sent a message to the owners of Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham over European Super League plans. The Premier League "Bix Six" announced on Sunday that they would be six of the 12 founding members of a new European Super League. One of the leading critics has been Sky Sports' Gary Neville, who has sent a message to the owners involved in the project, saying this evening: "They’ve created a monopoly, a closed shop, a tournament where you're guaranteed to be in it. West Ham and Leicester are in a Champions League place, forget it, they don’t get into the Champions League anymore, it doesn’t matter where they finish in the league. "What’s the point? They’ll take away everything from this country: the pyramid, the sincerity of competition, the honesty and integrity of competition that we value and they’re taking it away. Yeah, we know that Manchester United have more money, we know that Liverpool have more money, we know that Arsenal have more money, we can live with that. "There will always be top clubs that have more money, but they can be beaten by Sheffield United at home, they can draw with Fulham - and they’re trying to take that away to create franchise football. "Never, it can never happen, I don’t think these six owners, I hope they’re panting hard tonight, feeling uncomfortable and their stomachs are churning and the executives and players who play for these clubs - I can’t sit here and say to the players of Liverpool and United to go on strike because that wouldn’t be right, but lads, if you’ve got it in you, you can stop this, you can mobilise it. "Jurgen Klopp can stop it, he’s a man of integrity, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer can stop it, he’s a man of integrity, they can all contribute to stopping it and we must all come together to stop it now because this is an attack by six national families on the integrity of our national sport and it must be stopped.” Carragher was in complete agreement. He said: "No different to Gary and every supporter up and down the country. What I would say is this is not Liverpool, Man United, Chelsea, Spurs, Arsenal, Man City involved, this is John Henry and FSG, this is the Glazers, this is Roman Abramovich, Sheikh Mansour, Stan Kroenke, Daniel Levy - these are the people to blame for this. "What they’re doing right now is dragging institutions we’ve seen in this country for over 100 years basically through the mud, burning the history of what those clubs are about because from your own club’s point of view, the only reason Liverpool are in this or have a chance of being in the Super League is because they’ve won six European Cups or 20 league titles, only one each came under [Liverpool owners] FSG."
