PHIL NEVILLE has told his England stars they must show the same desire for success as Manchester United’s great teams of the Alex Ferguson era.

The Lionesses face Wales in their fourth World Cup qualifier tomorrow night, when a crowd of more than 25,000 is expected in Southampton, and global domination is Neville’s target for the team.

England sit second in the Fifa rankings, behind the United States, and the international break has come at a time when many of Neville’s players are chasing major trophies with their clubs.
