<a href="http://www.newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/Gary%20Neville" target="_blank">The former United defender</a> took over as Valencia head coach in a <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/12/gary-neville-hands-england-boost-after.html" target="_blank">shock move at the beginning of December</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In four games his only win has come against lowly Barakaldo in the Copa del Rey while there have been Liga draws with Eibar and Getafe as well as the Champions League defeat to Lyon.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He has been touted as a possible manager of both <a href="http://www.newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/Manchester%20United" target="_blank">United</a> and <a href="http://www.newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/England%20Football%20Team" target="_blank">England</a> - and with the pressure on <a href="http://www.newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/Louis%20Van%20Gaal" target="_blank">Louis van Gaal</a>, and <a href="http://www.newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/Roy%20Hodgson" target="_blank">Roy Hodgson</a>'s contract up in the summer, it has been suggested he could make that move sooner than later.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However the 40-year-old believes he could be in Spain for the long-haul.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Me being the England manager in six months or me being the Manchester United manager in six months – I can assure you it’s not going to happen,” Neville told the Telegraph.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“And it shouldn’t happen. Simple as that. I am removing any doubt that anybody should be thinking in that way. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"You see these things and its nonsense. Honestly, nonsense. I am happy here doing what I am doing. I am happy working under Roy. </div>

WAYNE ROONEY is set to miss out as England face European champions Spain in Alicante on Friday.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://www.newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/England%20Football%20Team" target="_blank">The Three Lions</a> skipper is being 'rested' according to boss <a href="http://www.newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/Roy%20Hodgson" target="_blank">Roy Hodgson</a>, but question marks over his form will continue.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Rooney, <a href="http://www.newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/Manchester%20United" target="_blank">Manchester United</a>'s top scorer in all competitions this season, has been under fire after a difficult start to the campaign.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://www.newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/Wayne%20Rooney" target="_blank">The 30-year-old</a> has scored just two Premier League goals for <a href="http://www.newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/Louis%20Van%20Gaal" target="_blank">Louis van Gaal</a>'s side and he was subbed in their 2-0 win over West Brom.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Dutch boss has however stuck by him, and Hodgson has too, but now it seems he's looking at his options ahead of next summer's Euros in France.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hodgson said: “Wayne’s with me today because he’s the captain of our team, he’s the most important figure as a result, but he actually won’t start the game tomorrow.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“I’m telling you that because Wayne and I are very anxious that we’re not trying to fool anybody or bamboozle anybody when he’s sat alongside me.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"That’s for the very simple reason that we’re looking at various combinations. Wayne is pencilled in against France on Tuesday.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Rooney said: "It's important in these games that the manager has the chance to see as many players as possible before next summer.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"There are lots of things to consider and hopefully the lads that come in can do well."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jamie Vardy, having scored in nine consecutive Premier League games, is a doubt with a knock meaning Harry Kane will start ahead of Ross Barkley in a number 10 role.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Jamie Vardy is struggling with a knock he picked up last Saturday," Hodgson added.</div>

Tottenham midfielder <a href="http://www.newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/Dele%20Alli" target="_blank">Dele Alli</a> has been called up for the first time after an impressive start to the season.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Alli signed for Spurs from MK Dons in January but went straight back on loan, but has made an impact in the centre of midfield for Mauricio Pochettino's side.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"We've been impressed with Dele Alli and this is a chance to get to know him. He's a very exciting talent," Hodgson said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Alli comes in at a time when England are short of options in midfield with Jack Wilshere, Jordan Henderson and Fabian Delph all out injured.</div>

But Pochettino recently warned Hodgson against picking Alli too early.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"It is the same situation as last season with Harry Kane," Pochettino said. "Be careful with the young players that arrive in the Premier League.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"It is not easy. Again it is not my decision. It is Roy Hodgson's decision if he wants to call up Dele Alli. You can see he is a player who is very mature and shows great quality.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"But always in football you need to take it step by step, game by game. He has a great personality and good character. But it is too much of a rush to talk about bigger steps for him."</div>
