VIDEO: Jamie Carragher’s brilliant welcome to Craig Bellamy as Gary Neville’s replacement

What a welcome.

Anyone who thought that Jamie Carragher would go easy on Craig Bellamy as his new co-pundit on Sky Sport’s Monday Night Football was sadly mistaken.

They may have been teammates at Anfield together, but Carragher wasn’t going to waste any time in taking the p*ss out of the new boy.

Within seconds of host Ed Chamberlin introducing Bellamy, his former Liverpool teammate came out with a zinger to cut him down to size.

Just as poor Craig was about to utter his first words, Jamie butted in with: “The only man we could find who is more unpopular than Gary Neville!”

Brilliant.
