Phil Neville managed England women's national football team for three years between 2018 and 2021, and while things ended poorly for the former Manchester United utility man, Izzy Christiansen has highlighted how he tried everything in his power to make things work.
Christiansen played 31 times for England between 2015 and 2019, first under Mark Sampson, then interim boss Mo Marley, before Neville took charge. Having played for Neville for just under a year, failing to make the England squad that finished fourth at the 2019 World Cup, Christiansen believes that the tools for success weren't quite there for either the players or manager.
