Neville says players should be shot if they fail to top group

GARY NEVILLE has admitted his Manchester United team-mates will ‘want shooting’ if they do not advance to the second Champions League stage as group winners.

The England fullback was handed his first start for four months against Olympiakos last night and made his presence felt immediately with a superb seventh-minute shot which was tipped round the post at full stretch by Dimitrios Eleftheropoulos.

Having scored just three times in over 350 appearances for the Red Devils, it was always likely the 27-year-old’s 30-yard rasper would not go in. Fortunately, his team-mates adopted a more clinical approach, romping to an impressive 4-0 win to put them six points clear at the top of Group F with three games still to play.
