Roy Keane has hit out at http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gary-Neville-c14447 in his recent address to the media by questioning the amount of influence that the former Manchester United right back can exercise over the English national team dressing room. Neville who
retired from football the season before the last one has been working as a pundit for SkyTV but he is now a member of Roy Hodgson’s coaching staff at the English national team setup where he is set to play a crucial role in developing the England national
team for the next four years.
It will be interesting to see what Neville brings to the table in the England camp given his previous experience of playing alongside the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 as well as being a part of an underachieving England
generation which never made it past the quarterfinal stage in any of their FIFA World Cup endeavours.
Keane was sceptical of Neville’s influence over the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 national team dressing room as he said, “It is important you are yourself. Gary can talk bit, but don't think for one minute he was as influential in the dressing room
as people might think he was, Gary would say his piece, but he wasn't running the show, far from it, so don't think for one minute he will be going into England and calling the shots.”
He added, "He will be learning his trade and being a link between the manager and the players and I think he will be good at that. It is a good appointment, but let's see how it pans out. Just like with anyone who is appointed
to any http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684, only time will tell.”
England have not impressed in their previous displays at the European Championships. The Three Lions didn’t even qualify for the 2008 European Championships and before that they lost out to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984 on penalty kicks in 2004.
