    'Cracking goal' - Taylor puts England ahead

    England forward Jodie Taylor believes the Lionesses are playing their "best ever" football - but can improve.

    Last week, the World Cup semi-finalists drew 3-3 with Belgium in their first game since this summer's tournament.

    It led coach Phil Neville to say his team might need to "suffer some pain" in future games so they could improve.

    "It's going to be an interesting few months," Taylor said.

    "But as players we all want to improve, and we all buy into the fact that is something we all need to be better at - but it's exciting times," she told BBC Sport.

    We want to be more like the Americans in our performance and that is what Phil Neville is trying to get his team to be like - playing like a winner and acting like a winner. I have no problems with what he said.

    Phil Neville, speaking about recent comments where he said he doesn't have bad days as England manager: "I gave an interview to one person and others have picked it up back home and taken it out of context to say I have never had a bad day I have had many bad days in the job but I think the context I said it in I am England manager managing a group of players who are absolutely inspirational and proud of that. That is where I don’t get my bad days from.

    "Even if I have my bad days I am proud that I am managing England, that is the context it was written in by the journalist out here."

    On Lucy Bronze playing in midfield: "There has been a lot of criticism and I understand because she is the best right-back in the world but she has the physicality and the energy to play there. She has the attributes but it will take time."

    Phil Neville says Lucy Bronze will continue in her midfield role and has likened her to former Germany full-back Philipp Lahm.

    Neville says right-back Bronze, 27, is a "risk" worth taking in midfield, having also played there in the 3-3 draw with Belgium on Thursday.

    "There will be times she plays right-back," Neville told BBC Sport.

    "But we have a two-year period now where playing Lucy in midfield might be one of the risks we take.

    "We might have to suffer - and that suffering and risk-taking gets us to where we want to get to.

    "[Former Bayern Munich manager] Pep Guardiola did it with Philip Lahm. He was voted one of the best right-backs, but he put him into midfield."

    Wales v Northern Ireland (19:05 BST)

    Wales hope to have record scorer Helen Ward available after she failed to start in the Faroe Islands because of a calf injury.

    However, they are still without key midfielders Jess Fishlock and Rachel Rowe.

    Seattle Reign and Lyon midfielder Fishlock, Wales' most capped player, has undergone knee surgery and will miss Wales' first four qualifiers, while Rowe has returned to fitness from knee surgery but is not yet considered match fit. She is continuing her rehabilitation with Reading.

    Ashley Hutton and Jacqueline Burns both made mistakes leading to goals in Northern Ireland's defeat, so former Derry City boss Kenny Shiels, who succeeded Alfie Wylie in May, will have to consider whether to name an unchanged line-up.

    Wales v Northern Ireland (19:05 BST)

    Wales manager Jayne Ludlow says Northern Ireland will represent a far sterner challenge than their opening result suggests - a 6-0 thrashing at the hands of Norway.

    "We are good... our recovery has gone really well and our preparations for this game are on point," she told BBC Sport Wales.

    "I am sure Northern Ireland will be a more challenging game, they didn't have the result that they wanted in their first game, but I am sure they will look at us differently to how they viewed Norway.

    "We expect a tough game. They have changed what they do with the new manager being involved.

    Lucy Bronze's move into midfield comes at time when Arsenal's Jordan Nobbs and Lyon's Izzy Christiansen are recovering from injury while Manchester City midfielder Jill Scott has been rested.

    "We have to have a vision where we have the best possible team," Phil Neville added.

    "People will ask why we are doing it - she is the best right-back in the world - but if you are brave enough to take the risk and have buy-in from the player it can be successful."

    Bronze has admitted she feels "uncomfortable" in midfield, but is happy to embrace the change.
