TARA ANSON-WALSH: Five years into her reign‚ Sarina Wiegman knows exactly what it takes to keep her Lionesses ticking. After a four-goal thumping by Spain prior to the summer break‚ the Dutch coach opted to wield the axe and bring in the young guns. Wiegman‚ who has regularly been praised for her transparency with her players over her selection decisions‚ chose to leave out two of her most trusted stalwarts in Chloe Kelly and Ella Toone for these two-legged semi-final World Cup qualifiers.

Mary Earps has apologised for controversial passages of her new memoir that appeared to hit out at her former England head coach Sarina Wiegman and Lionesses team-mate Hannah Hampton. The Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper's autobiography detailed her retirement from the England set-up in passages which captured national attention‚ calling her manager's handling of the end of her international career 'bulls***'. Earps also appeared to hint at a difficult relationship with her former No 2 - now the Lionesses' No 1 - Hampton‚ claiming that her behaviour at the 2022 European Championship was 'overwhelmingly considered disruptive and unreliable‚ with a risk of being destructive'.
