Sunday 18 December 2016 11:18, UK
Gary Neville will join the Sunday Supplement panel for a special edition of the show live from the Etihad Stadium this weekend.
Two-time winner of the Royal Television Society's sports commentator of the year award, Neville will lock horns with several of football's finest writers to debate the big issues in the sport and journalism.
The former Manchester United captain will be joined on the show - broadcast at 9am on Sky Sports 1 - by Martin Samuel (Daily Mail), Henry Winter (Daily Telegraph) and Oliver Holt (Mail on Sunday), as well as host Neil Ashton.
Neville will offer his razor-sharp analysis on the biggest talking points in football and after his take on the performances of Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius drew a feisty response from Jurgen Klopp, his appearance promises to be unmissable viewing.
"It's a huge moment in the season for fans and players as the games come thick and fast and I can't wait to play my part with Sky Sports," Neville said.
"The issues that dominate the back pages are fascinating and I'm expecting an interesting debate with some of the best football writers to set up what promises to be a big day in Manchester for the title race."
