Valencia boss Gary Neville calls for calm

Valencia boss Gary Neville has told his players to "get back down to earth" following their 6-0 win over Rapid Vienna in the Europa League on Thursday night.

Neville has struggled to make an impression at Los Che since arriving in December, but the pressure on the Englishman was eased courtesy of a thumping victory in the first leg of their last-32 clash at the Mestalla.

Neville branded the win "the best result" since he arrived, but the former Manchester United defender has called on his players to move on quickly ahead of Sunday's La Liga clash with Granada.

"We must get back down to earth and think about the next match. This has been the best result since I came to Valencia, but not the best night. We can't celebrate victories [too much] midway through the season," Neville told reporters.

"I thought it'd be difficult to break down a team like Rapid, but I've always had faith in my players. They had a great first half, with confidence, faith and fantasy [in their play]. The most important thing is balance. We mustn't go crazy when we win or lose. We must stay calm and always look to play well in the next match."

As it stands, Neville is only contracted to Valencia until the end of the current season.
