The dynamic between Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville on Sky Sports Monday Night Football is something that we've all grown to love.
The former Liverpool and Manchester United defenders were fierce adversaries on the pitch, but on screen their rivalry largely consists of them taking the piss out of each other...and it makes great television.
After a hiatus which saw him take up an ill-fated managerial job at Valencia, Neville announced he was coming back to MNF and the punditry double act were reunited once again.
But for anyone tuning in to see David Moyes pit his new Sunderland side against his old club Everton, you might have noticed that Sky craftily switched Nevilles for the game.
Gary was out and Phil was in to cover the match between his former club Everton and ex-boss Moyes' with his new-look Sunderland team.

While some fans were dismayed that Gary was not the Neville casting his eagle-eye, acerbic tongue and lambent wit over proceedings, it mattered not to Carragher.
The Liverpool legend was still going to take the piss. He got the first dig in before the show had even kicked off at 7pm.
"Saw off the other Neville after a few years this'll take a few hours!" he wrote on Instagram before the game. You just know Phil is going to get some stick tonight...
