Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher are a bit of a dream team when it comes to football punditry.
Since the pair has teamed up, Monday Night Football has been reinvented with viewers tuning in to watch the former England players take on some of the biggest talking points in football and comprehensively analyse key games.
With the season coming to a close this Sunday, the pair picked their team of the season.
Gary Neville’s team drew some criticism after he opted to include Thibaut Courtois over David de Gea in goal and only included one non-Tottenham or Chelsea player.
Carragher, on the other hand, chose a more varied team, employing the 3-4-3 formation.
And, on Tuesday morning he decided to take to twitter for a Q&A session about his team.
Most of his defences were fair.
He explained why he left out Liverpool’s Sadio Mané.
Had a brilliant season & was in my team at Xmas but has missed a lot of football since & couldn't leave out Sanchez or Hazard. https://t.co/qFuvg7FsRa

He stood by his selection of David Silva.
You serious!!! Problem Silva has is he's the same every year & gets taken for granted. One of the best foreign players we've had in PL. https://t.co/qzuDFmuC2f

Even when someone said Coutinho’s goal record should have him in ahead of the Spaniard.
Silva played a lot deeper Kent you know that! Coutinho should have better stats as he's part of a front 3 https://t.co/BfhQL30XA0

Carragher wasn’t afraid to admit that he could be wrong either.
Well it was a toss up but you're maybe right as you've seen them more than me.

And then things got a little bit petty when it came to explaining why he left out the league’s top goalscorer, Romelu Lukaku.
Because he plays for Everton! https://t.co/JpLMm27KVL

He did go on to give his more acceptable reasoning for the exclusion.
I'll pick Kane over most as he's one of my favourite players & better goals to minutes then my mate Rom 😉

He loves Lukaku and Everton secretly (or not so secretly).
