Gary Neville shows true colours before Monday Night Football after video interruption
Old Trafford icon Gary Neville was only too happy to engage with fans on the street ahead of Monday Night Football's return.
The Manchester United legend has been gearing up for the much-anticipated return of a Premier League staple on Monday when Tottenham will kick off their season against newly-promoted Leicester City.

Interrupting the preview of his MNF comeback, Neville encountered a group of cheering construction workers who instantly clock exactly who was walking past.
