England defender Joleon Lescott believes that Gary Neville will prove to be a "great addition" to Roy Hodgson's coaching staff.
The newly-appointed Three Lions boss added Neville to his backroom team for the European Championships last week.
The decision has gone down well among the England playing squad, with Manchester City centre-back Lescott the latest to give his approval.
"Gary gets his message across and addresses everyone in the squad individually. He's been brought in to communicate with the boys," said Lescott.
"He is definitely someone I respect with what he has achieved in football and the way he conducts himself.
"He passes on his experience of games he's been involved in over the years, so I think he's a great addition."
Lescott played alongside Neville's brother, Phil, during his time at Everton.
