Chelsea defender David Luiz has claimed that Gary Neville needs to show respect following comments made by the former Manchester United full-back earlier in the season.
Neville, now working as a television pundit, famously described the Brazilian to a computer game character being controlled by a 10-year-old back in December.
However, Luiz believes that he has since shown the 37-year-old that he has adapted to English football.
"I know Gary Neville in the past was a very good player but he sometimes needs respect," he told the Daily Mail.
"Gary Neville say bad, other people say good. I just need to show with my work on the pitch. I respond like this.
"I just know that in all the games that I am on the pitch, I just try to show my best. I work a lot, tackle, I give my heart on the pitch."
Luiz made his 50th appearance for the Blues in Saturday's 2-1 win against Wigan Athletic.
