Gary Neville: five things he can do to save his job at Valencia

Forget about Barcelona, Espanyol is the match that matters. They have not won away since October, are hopelessly out of form and there for the taking

It is impossible to learn Spanish in a couple of days but even a small amount would help him understand the players and transmit his ideas better

With Paco Alcácer injured the goals will be even more scarce for Valencia so Neville needs to find an attacking formation to compensate for his loss

In the last four games, his side have picked up 12 yellow cards and two reds. He needs to keep them calm and on the pitch if he is to survive the chop

And start adapting tactics to the players. There's not enough time to forge the players into a romantic system. Only results matter now.
