Jamie Carragher takes a playful swipe at Gary Neville and Roy Keane for making excuses for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer despite Manchester United's stuttering form 'because they played with him and he's their mate'

Jamie Carragher has taken a playful swipe at his Sky Sports punditry colleagues Gary Neville and Roy Keane for making excuses for Manchester United and their under pressure boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

United splashed out over £100million in the summer on a lavish recruitment drive which saw them bring back superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, but they have struggled during the early stages of this season.

As a result, there have been mounting calls for Solskjaer to leave, but Neville and Keane have often stood by their former team-mate - a stance which Carragher has now jokingly hit out at.
