Liam Gallagher says he is insulted when people say that his estranged brother, Noel Gallagher, was the driving force behind Oasis.

The Beady Eye frontman says that he was surprised how many thought that he would be no good with out his older sibling in the picture.

The 'Bring the Light' singer said: "I'm insulted that people think Noel Gallagher has been f***ing carrying this band for the last 18 years.

"People were saying (about Beady Eye), 'Oh it's going to be f***ing s**t.' It's like, are you tripping or what?"

The Mancunian compared the Oasis rivalry to The Stone Roses' one:

"The Noel versus Liam thing, I'm a bit saddened by it, that some people feel like they need to pick sides. Like, I wouldn't go and see The Stone Roses and be like, 'I hate John Squire but I'm into Ian Brown,' or whatever."
