Rashford out to wreck party
PHIL NEVILLE says leading England Women tops anything he achieved in his playing career.
The former Manchester United Treble winner, right, takes charge of the Lionesses in a World Cup qualifier for the first time tonight against Wales.
He said: “Nothing beats putting on the England blazer. It surpasses everything I’ve achieved.” MARCUS Rashford is out to spoil Manchester City’s title party tomorrow with a repeat of his Etihad heroics of two years ago.
Manchester United’s young striker marked his first derby by scoring the winner in a 1-0 success in March 2016 and would love to play his part in the victory – or draw – that would delay City sealing the championship. He said: “The team played brilliantly in that game and we deserved to win.
“That feeling going away to a big team and winning is something special. To do it together as a team, you hold it with you and it gives you the strength and motivation to continue doing it.” Jesse Lingard says United must play with “no fear” and will be making a mistake if they just focus on spoiling City’s day.
“You have to go into it like any other game because if you let other things come into play it might affect your performance, ” he said.
“We have performed well there before so I don’t see why we can’t do it again. ” DAVID MOYES is making plans for next season before he is even confirmed as West Ham’s manager, with a £32million spending spree on the cards. The Scot, whose short-term contract ends in the summer, wants Norwich’s £15 m-valued playmaker James Maddison, left, alongside Bournemouth’s Harry Arter and Fulham’s Ryan Fredericks.
BARNSLEY keeper Nick Townsend has broken a finger in a training scrap with team-mate Dimitri Cavare that boss Jose Morais called a “a duel between two players”.
