Gary Neville believes that England's young team will continue to improve as they mature.

Gary Neville is confident that there is a bright future ahead for England's national side regardless of what they achieve at Euro 2012.

The Three Lions face Italy in Kiev tonight, aiming to reach the last four at a major tournament for the first time in 16 years.

"This squad is the second or third youngest in the tournament and there are young players to come. [Jack] Wilshere, [Kyle] Walker, [Chris] Smalling, [Daniel] Sturridge, and we would like to see more," said Neville.

"They will get their opportunity in this next couple of years. We know that the manager talks about them and wants to bring them in."

Neville, who retired as a player in February 2011, joined England's coaching staff on a four-year contract last month.
