Jamie Carragher brought up TV presenter Jake Humphrey, just moments after fellow pundit Gary Neville revealed he will be getting a tattoo to celebrate turning 50.
The punditry duo discussed a number of subjects on the latest episode of The Overlap, brought to you by Sky Bet, including Everton’s decision to appoint David Moyes following Sean Dyche's untimely dismissal.
Manchester United's form was also a hot topic of debate following their FA Cup third round win over Arsenal but it was Neville's birthday plans that got Roy Keane, Jamie Carragher, Ian Wright and Jill Scott talking the most.

The former Manchester United defender, who made over 600 appearances for his boyhood club, will turn 50 next month.
And to celebrate, he will do 10 things he's never done before. "I'm going to get a tattoo," Neville began. "I don't know... for my 50th birthday I'm going to do 10 things I've never done before and one of them is to get a tattoo."
After making the revelation on air, an amused Carragher then referenced Jake Humphrey, who hosts the The High Performance Podcast. "Ah honestly," Carragher replied. "He's becoming our Jake Humphrey!"
Neville burst out laughing before asking: "Can that go out?"

Asked what else he wants to do, Neville added: "I want to go to the Ashes in Australia. That's something I need to ask Sky about. I want to go on a safari. Glastonbury is another one."
As mentioned above, one of the talking points on this week's episode was Everton's decision to appoint David Moyes.
Jamie Carragher said he was "disappointed" that the Toffees didn’t thank Sean Dyche for his service after two years at the helm.

“David Moyes was the only manager that would’ve felt right to sack Sean Dyche for," he said.
"It was a risk with Sean Dyche – the football wasn’t great, the results weren’t great, but the two years before that, results had been good. I think Everton let themselves down with the statement about Sean Dyche.
"My family are Evertonian, and my in-laws are season ticket holders – there was never a great love for Dyche but there was always a respect that he’d get the job done.
“He did that in the first two years. I thought that statement from Everton, not recognising what he’d done over the past two years, taking over from Frank Lampard when they were bottom of the league, and had an eight-point deduction last week."

Carragher added: "I think Everton are a classy club, but I think Sean Dyche deserved more.”
