Keira Knightley has revealed her love for former Manchester United defender and Sky Sports pundit, Gary Neville.
No, really.
Knightley was speaking to The Daily Telegraph and spewed, “He is just f**king amazing," Before underlining the point with, "Absolutely f**king amazing! His commentary... well, it's just amazing. He's amazing.”
Amazing? Amazing.
Knightley of course appeared in Bend it like Beckham, and is a keen West Ham fan, but only bought a TV (she didn’t own one before), so she could watch the football, and indeed Neville on the box.
"Football is basically the reason I got a television. I didn't have one before because I didn't know where I was going to be, so there was no point.” She confessed. If she ever signs a deal to advertise Sky, like every other celebrity, someone remind her she said that.
Neville for his part responded to the lovely compliments with the below tweet. Never one for making a fuss is Gary.
