Today the squad picked by England Manager Phil Neville for this summers Womens World Cup was announced:
Goalkeepers: Karen Bardsley (Man City), Mary Earps (Wolfsburg), Carly Telford (Chelsea)
Defenders: Millie Bright (Chelsea), Lucy Bronze (Lyon), Rachel Daly (Houston Dash), Alex Greenwood (Man Utd), Steph Houghton (captain, Man City), Abbie McManus (Man City), Demi Stokes (Man City) Leah Williamson (Arsenal)
Midfielders: Karen Carney (Chelsea), Jade Moore (Reading), Jill Scott (Man City), Lucy Staniforth (Birmingham City), Georgia Stanway (Man City), Keira Walsh (Man City)
Forwards:Toni Duggan (Barcelona) Fran Kirby (Chelsea), Beth Mead (Arsenal), Nikita Parris (Man City), Jodie Taylor (Seattle Reign), Ellen White (Birmingham City)
Quite liked the way they did the announcements with a different celebrity announcing each player via a short video which made it more interesting.
Not too many surprises but its a strong squad so have got my fingers crossed that we'll have a good tournament!
Englands first group game is 9th June against Scotland, with Argentina and Japan being the other group members. Bring It Home Lionesses!!
