Part 5/6:
The Lionesses boast a robust and experienced squad at St. George's Park, with notable performances from players like Chloe Kelly, Ella Toone, and Lauren James indicating they could be pivotal in the matches ahead. The coaching staff must also resolve key positional battles, including the goalkeeper dilemma between Mary Earps and Hannah Hampton, as well as decisions surrounding center midfield and defense.
These upcoming fixtures against Belgium will not only serve as crucial tests but also as an opportunity for the coaching team to ascertain their optimal starting eleven in preparation for the first game in Switzerland come July. The blend of established stars and new talents may redefine the Lionesses’ approach in this critical year of competition.
