"What I haven't enjoyed in the last 24 hours to 48 hours, and I haven't answered to it, is where people have transmitted that into being that Liverpool are the biggest club.

They're not the biggest club.

"Let's put it into ChatGPT: 'Who is the biggest football club in England?'"

Reading the AI generated response, Neville says: "Historically, Liverpool and Manchester United are neck and neck.
