SWISS PAIR A DISGRACE, SAYS NEVILLE

FORMER Manchester United and England defender Phil Neville heavily criticised Granit Xhaka and Xherdan Shaqiri as Switzerland went out to a deflected goal from Sweden’s Emil Forsberg. TV pundit Neville said: ‘I mean Xhaka, disgraceful. The goal itself, he just went to the floor. He let Forsberg go past him too easily too many times in the second half. He’s probably in the dressing room thinking, “I’ve had a good game, I’ve passed it to my own players a couple of times sideways”. ‘I just think we see this week in, week out... I think I see this for Arsenal week in, week out. For me he’s just not my type of player. ‘He cost his team the goal, because Forsberg comes inside and he just literally lets him waltz across him. Does nothing. He’s a holding midfield player. He’s fake.’ Neville, manager of the England women’s team, was critical of Stoke’s Shaqiri. He said: ‘I am not a fan of Shaqiri. I think he was a disgrace for Stoke last season. His attitude was terrible at times.’
