SKY SPORTS duo Jamie Carragher and Dave Jones had Gary Neville in stitches with a rendition of Kevin Keegan’s infamous ‘I would love it’ rant.
The trio discussed the thrilling title race between Liverpool and Manchester City after the latter were held to a 0-0 draw by Crystal Palace on Monday night.
City’s slip up means Liverpool can move to within a single point of the league leaders with victory over Arsenal on Wednesday.
And when talking about the title, Manchester United legend Neville conceded: “I think Liverpool are really dangerous, really, really dangerous. And that’s an awful thing to say.”
As he made the painful admission Carragher turned to Jones and grinned.
Jones then pointed out that Liverpool still have to travel to the Etihad next month, in what could well turn out to be the title decider.

Echoing shades of Keegan’s infamous rant, Jones joked: “But they’ve still got to go there and get something!”
Carragher then followed up with: “And I would love it! I’d love it!”
They were of course re-enacting Keegan’s hilarious outburst from the 1995/96 season.
With Keegan’s Newcastle battling Manchester United for the Prem trophy, Keegan famously blurted out: “We’re still fighting for this title.

“And he’s [Sir Alex Ferguson] got to go to Middlesborough and get something. And I’ll tell you honestly, I will love it if we beat them! Love it!”
Keegan and Co eventually lost out to the Red Devils by four points.
This year’s title race could be much closer though, with the potential to go right down to the wire.
Jurgen Klopp’s side currently trail City by four points but having played a game less.
And with the two teams set to come to blows in a mammoth clash at the Etihad on June 10, the title could come down to the result of that game.
