Heads were turned this summer when the return of David Luiz to Chelsea, as out of nowhere a defender who was scrutinised and criticised by pundits all over England was making his way back to the Premier League.
Another man making a return this summer was Gary Neville, who came back to Sky Sports after a failed stint as Valencia manager, and as someone who has had some excellent analogies for David Luiz's defending before, he wasted no time in getting one out on Friday Night Football.
Neville was expressing his surprise at Conte choosing David Luiz to play for him, claiming that he would have thought a manager like the Italian opting for the former PSG man was as likely as him going out with 'Miss World'...

Don't be so hard on yourself Gary.
He still has some way to go to beat his description of David Luiz's defending as like someone controlling him on a Playstation, but it's good to see him back analysing Premier League football.
As for Mr. Luiz, the first half against Liverpool did not go to plan at all, and he found his side 2-0 at half-time and himself with a very sore nose.
Luiz's second Chelsea debut is not going the way he planned
