England stars impress new Lionesses boss Phil Neville as he takes scouting trip to watch Arsenal thrash Liverpool
- Arsenal Women beat Liverpool Women 3-0 at the Select Security Stadium
- Phil Neville was there mainly to watch the Gunners, who played three Lionesses
- Leah Williamson, Danielle Carter and Jordan Nobbs all performed well
New England Women boss Phil Neville was in attendance as Arsenal Women recorded a 3-0 victory over Liverpool at the Select Security Stadium.
It was one of the former right-back's first outings in his new role since his unveiling as manager of the Lionesses at the end of January.
The FA have been forced to deal with controversy since Neville's appointment with the former Manchester United and England defender criticised after being accused of making sexist comments on Twitter in 2012.

But he has since made a full apology and looked in good spirits as Arsenal closed the gap on third-placed Liverpool to one point in the Women's Super League on Wednesday.
After Caroline Weir had sent a wonderful shot against the visitors' bar, Vivianne Miedema opened the scoring in the 29th minute, slotting in the loose ball on the follow-up when her penalty was saved by Becky Flaherty.
Dominique Janssen then made it 2-0 with a superb strike from outside the box just before half-time.
And Lisa Evans subsequently wrapped things up with a firm right-footed finish past Flaherty.
Neville will be pleased with what he saw from Arsenal and England trio Leah Williamson, Danielle Carter and Jordan Nobbs who all impressed.
