From keeping captain Leah Williamson fit to rectifying defensive errors, England have to learn from last year's heartache as their Euro 2025 qualifiers kick off
From keeping captain Leah Williamson fit to rectifying defensive errors, England have to learn from last year's heartache as their Euro 2025 qualifiers kick offpresents the Lionesses with that rarest of commodities – a whole summer off, with only a casual eye on events unfolding in Paris.
Wiegman constructs the rebuild tentatively. On Friday, her side play the first of the qualifiers for next year’s European Championship, when England will seek to defend the title won to such acclaim. Chloe Kelly, shirt aloft, would go on to steer the nation to victory over Brazil on penalties in the Finalissima nine months later.
Jess Park is vying to compete with Ella Toone as Kirby’s understudy, excelling in her Everton loan last season. Indeed after a sensational role in the Manchester derby, Park may be wondering what else she has to do should she not start against Sweden. That she has stayed in Wiegman’s thinking is no small feat, though, when others have fallen out of consideration altogether.
Toone, who recently became the first Manchester United Women’s player to hit 50 goals, must seize her chance to show she is more than an option off the bench. Wiegman may want to look again at Hannah Hampton, now Mary Earps’ back-up, while the likes of Katie Robinson, Maya Le Tissier and, not in the current squad, can still play their way into contention. There was once a sense that Nikita Parris’ international career was all but over but her upturn in form for United may yet change that.
Wiegman may have little choice but to exercise more caution this time around. England learned that the hard way in a competitive Nations League – and they have not been dealt a kind hand in their Euro qualifiers either.9 April – Republic of Ireland vs England 12 July – England vs Republic of Ireland
