  1. With no Black women player for England… How does it feel… There excuse is we have Lauren or Carter… again no Black women players for England… England should take a leaf out of France, or the USA teams showing a true reflection of these countries driven by diverse ethnicities that helped and made these rich countries what they are today. It's not the same for those poorer countries not having White players in their teams because they never robbed stole and pillaged the English, or Germans or the Americans to leave them White players out of there Teams… Basically it's a F u to Blacks… Again how does it feel.

  3. I really feel bad about Russo by going to our rival arsenal and also feel disappointed about Man U for not extending her contract until she decided to leave. She’s a world class player.

  4. There a big processes at play and women’s international games is changing fast,it appears.The best is a purest ideal and in time maybe fantastic performance will win through.These physical teams and their way,is another challenge.If African South America and Central American nations invested,it could be very very different .The best team obviously wins.

  5. You can't take Jess Carter out ,shes been brilliant, hasn't put a foot wrong, it's a mess to be honest ,why is Daly playing at left wing back anyway? She's the most natural goal scorer in the squad , it's ridiculous, surely Hemp is more suited there and Daly beside Russo or preferably Beth England..

  6. I think we stick with the back three to keep the WB's i 'd take toone out have Charles as L W B and Daly as the floating 10. I don't think Keira is completely match fit as she's used to the defenders in the wing being way up at Barca. Whatever happens now we've done well to grind out getting to the semis with the injuries we've had and you only have to look at the other teams that are out. I have full trust in Sarina and the players, they've done us proud again.

  7. dont forget the best player in the world SAM KERR she plays the whole game against England Australia win that. Then once Australia are in final i dont believe any team can beat them at home that is just the character of Australia .

  8. I was happy that England won today. The performance wasn't the best, but they still made it through. The next game and the final if made demand the Lionesses to up their level and play a lot better…..

  9. I can see more ways for Australia to win than England. While the England team that lost to Australia was slightly diminished, Australia was at half strength. I feel like teams have figured out how to squeeze Englands mids, and keep Walsh out of the game, and I don't know that Toone stands up in that situation. Kelly is always a major source, and I think has been underutilized, and with no James England may lack creative threat. I also think Australia can exploit Englands backs.

  10. Fara is spot on about Keira and the new formation. Keira has been poor since her return. Tooney had another below par performance. She is not the answer at the ten and she was afraid of the physicality of the Colombians. Performances must improve to get past the host nation to reach the final.

  11. eartha speaks with so much diplomacy keeping hope & tatic marginal, fara is a realist I get that, I agree w/the pt that keira walsh isn't shining as she should but all the teams have her number so regardless of the formation they will be tight on her she may not get those pockets as before but her presence centers the team. zalem is a solid player china was less than solid so to steady the ship sarina will always chose kiera walsh. to take out Carter for the next game insane remark the more pitch time Carter gets the more levels of beast mode she unlocks, if sarina tweaks the formation again so be it, if she uses the same so be it the more they gel the more they are resliant to find a way. hempo & russo found their magic peak when it was suppose to, cause it was indeed that magic! sloppy goal keeping but sharp eyes, ability to keep the run going it has to say something.

  12. England could go all the way if they get passed Australia. Having been born in England and forced to go to Australia as a child I have divided loyalties. Also having represented Australia in international sport. The English need to remember when facing Oz you need extra bc here they still love with passion to beat England at anything.

  13. The hubris of these commentators is beyond belief. Fara Williams talking as if the side she played in where unbeatable. I watched them and trust me they were not even fit to tie the shoe laces of these players. Tournament football is about winning matches. Ask the current World champs Usa out .Ask the losers of the Euro finalists ;Germany out , ask the Olympic Gold medalists, Canada out Ask them if they want to swap with the lionesses. So negative. Bore off !!!@

  14. New to watching women football, and this podcast is brilliant, really informative, "telling it like it is' and giving me an insight in to most players, not just the England line.
    I like it that the teams are do diverse ( apart from the England team).
    Which I understand, as it starts from grassroots, needing the finance to support young players, training sessions are in the suburbs etc.
    Anyway keep up the good work 👍🏿👏🏿❤
