Gary Neville’s take-down of Fulham flop Andre Schurrle is spot-on

On Sky Sports’ production of West Ham United versus Fulham on Friday night, Manchester United legend Gary ꧟Nev♈ille tore Andre Schurrle to shreds.

Neville’s of the German international’s work ethic and commitment to the Fulham cause was spot-on and mirrored the frustrꦏation of the Fulham support.

During Neville’s rant, he referenced Schurrle made to the German press earlier 🥀this month, which indicated Schurrle would leave Craven Cottage if the Whites suffered relegation.

Although Schurrle later claimed his comments were taken out of context, questions over his com🧸mitment to the Fulham cause🥃 are certainly justified. Neville latched on to Schurrle’s status as a loan player (albeit a two-year deal) and called out the German for failing to buy into the club.

Neville is spot on with his criticism. The last thing Fulham need in their unlik🍃ely battle against the drop is for a player to publicly throw doubt on their future at the club.

In addition, it reveals a l✅arger failing at the club: an over-reliance𒊎 on loan deals that leaves the Whites exposed once players depart.

Although Gary Neville’s outburst on Schurrle was harsh — particularly when he doubted the player missed out because of a virus — it won many plaud♍its among the Fulham fans.

And🌟re Schurrle perhaps sums up the team’s failed season excellently: something that appeared destiജned for success, completely flattered to deceive, and then appears resigned to its fate far too early on.
