Phil Neville’s family values
It’s been a tough start for former England Women’s manager Phil Neville who is now the gaffer at Inter Miami the new American side owned by David Beckham.
Following a poor first season, Miami are languishing in the bottom half of the table once again.
Given those struggles, it was slightly odd to hear Neville describe this week’s friendly against Barcelona as “the biggest game in the club’s history”, but such is life for these credibility-hungry MLS franchises.
Anyway, at least Miami fans could look forward to the manager picking a full-strength side, including stars like Gonzalo Higuain and er, Harvey Neville, Phil‘s son, who came on at half-time despite never having played in the American top flight before.
He was joined soon after by another young gun with no MLS experience – a Mr Romeo Beckham.
They lost 6-0.
