MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Former England defender Gary Neville took aim at what he called the "lawless" Premier League in his podcast over Everton's 10-point deduction last week that shocked English soccer.

Everton on Friday became the first Premier League club to be deducted points for breaching profitability and sustainability rules (PSR), when the league docked the Merseyside club the points over their finances in the 2020-21 season.
