do you think steph will have a retirement goodbye during the may international break when the lionesses play at home in newcastle? or is it weird because she hasn't been in the squad for ages? feel like most ex players who retire while outside of the england setup still get a shirt with their amount of caps etc and steph was a huge part of our history but something feels different in her situation idk what - lol thoughts?
I hope so but I'm not sure. Especially because it's up north, I would hope that she could get a proper send off. Or perhaps she may come to one of the games and be presented with something once she's retired, the next season, like Jill did (I think?). I know what you mean about her situation feels different, maybe because of the "tensions" between her and Sarina? But she is for sure an Enand legend and she did so much work with that team, it will be really disappointing if they don't do something to honour her.
oh huge agree (but i heard people think khiara should be okay they took her back to city for rest not really for a significant injury & i choose to believe it 🙏)
Same same. Really hoping Khiara should be okay and it's just a precaution 🤞🤞
Keira as captain is something that just makes so much sense to me😌
Some England fans on Twitter are being annoying saying she has got worse since moving to Barca😭 now I know you are a city fan but I also know that you know ball. People are crazy for this statement in my opinion!! Sweden were out to get the poor girl, at one point she had 4 players on her😅
It really really does
I know it's so annoying, I think people just don't understand the role of the 6 and so she's so underappreciated just because she isn't scoring goals/ make obvious defensive clearences. Things they can pick up on easily. But she just directs and influences the game so so well it's so good to watch. And yeah poor girl has getting marked HARD 😭😭
also does this mean she's first captain? over alex and mary? i literally haven't caught up on any press conferences or anything so genuinely have no clue
