Man Utd legend Gary Neville fires brutal comeback to Chelsea troll after sharing tactical insight in Real Madrid clash
GARY NEVILLE hit back at a troll who mocked his 'tactical analysis' during Chelsea's Champions League clash with Real Madrid.
The Blues suffered a 2-0 defeat to the Spanish giants in the first leg of their quarter-final tie at the Bernabeu on Wednesday night.
Chelsea's goal was breached in the 21st minute by Karim Benzema, a moment Neville foresaw when he claimed the West Londoners were struggling to make the most of their possession.
After the goal went in, he tweeted: "Too late with my tactical advice!
"That was coming!!!"
A troll then proceeded to mock Neville's brief stint as Valencia manager, which lasted a mere four months.

The Manchester United great responded by informing the troll he got a point against Los Blancos, saying: "Drew 2-2 with Real Madrid."
The draw with Real was one of the few highlights of Neville's reign at the Mestalla, which ended following a run of three wins in 16 matches.
And Neville - who oversaw a 7-0 battering by Barcelona - admits he wasn't ready for management when he took the gig.
During an appearance on The Overlap, Neville said: "Roy [Keane] said before about saying no, and I did say no the first time I was asked.

He added: "Go over there thinking four or five months.
"I didn't think it was gonna be easy, but I just thought I had to basically steer the ship to the end of the season, literally four-five months.
“And over there I remember looking in the mirror one morning and thinking: 'I'm struggling.'
"Didn't know what to do with the players, was changing systems, all the things that I say on television now you should never do and it was too much.
"Out of my depth. I needed to get out of there but it was something that I learned a lot from.
"I wouldn't do it in the future. I would never do it again."
