London: Gary Neville says he may never return to coaching and feels he was "chucked overboard" by the Football Association following England's dismal display at Euro 2016.

The 41-year-old left his role as Three Lions assistant manager alongside boss Roy Hodgson and coach Ray Lewington after the 2-1 last-16 defeat to Iceland in Nice at the end of June.
Neville, who had an unsuccessful spell in charge of Spanish side Valencia last season, believes he was unfairly treated by English football's governing body and says he has interests other than coaching to focus on.
"I've been to eight tournaments as a player, three as a coach, I'm probably the only English coach that's managed in LaLiga at a top four club in the last 15 to 20 years, even if it's only for four months," he told Sky Sports News.
"I'm only 41 years of age and you're regarded as a failure," he said.
The former Manchester United defender took on the England role when Hodgson was appointed boss ahead of Euro 2012 following the departure of Fabio Capello.
