Proper excited for the tournament, hoping for big things from England and the Arsenal gang. Beth Mead for player of the tournament!
Excellent feature, Tim. Thanks alot for the coverage.
Thanks, Tim.
And Steph Cayley and Caitlin Foord can have a much-needed rest.
Also, let’s spare a thought for Jordan Nobbs, who surely would have been in the England squad were it not for her unfortunately timed injury.
I feel so sad for Jordan, she’s been so, so unlucky and she would definitely have been thereif not for yet another dam injury. Sadly her time won’t come again 😕
Unlucky again – but it’s not true at all that her time won’t come again as she turns 30 later this year only & the World Cup is in 2023………….
