Ex-Manchester United striker Dwight Yorke has told old teammate Gary Neville to grow up.

Yorke and Neville were part of a generational Manchester United squad that won the treble in 1998-1999 and countless other trophies.

Neville and fellow Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher were creating a combined eleven of Manchester City and the United treble winning side, given City may match that achievement this term.

Speaking to The Mirror on behalf of aceodds, Yorke stated: “Well, to be quite honest, people go on about this debate that’s continuing to unravel. Why are we talking about it? They haven’t even done the treble. Until they really have, then there is no debate.

“You know, there is a high possibility, I suppose, that they can do the treble. But that’s great. If they do, they will be joining an elite group of players. You know, no other British team has done that. It’s not like they’re going to try and eclipse what we have done. And so I just don’t get it.

“Until they have done that, then let the debate start. You’re arguing something that has not happened yet. And until they’ve done that, then I just really think it’s an invaluable sort of debate.

“What if they were to lose one out of the next two cup competition that they enter into? So that debate will never exist. So come on, guys, just tell them to grow up both of them. You know, they’re going on about stuff that I don’t feel that is really needs debating just now, in my opinion.”
