  • The Women's World Cup is kicking off on July the 20th.
  • It's the biggest Women's World Cup in history with 32 teams competing.
  • There's eight debutantes, which is really exciting.
  • But, I mean, all the major players are in with a chance of winning this competition.
  • USA, obviously, two times back-to-back reigning champions, going for a third title in a row are always a threat, despite sort of the turnover in their team.
  • A lot of new faces and a new manager in charge.
  • It helps that it's being held mid-season as well, so their players are all really, really fresh.
  • You're never able to write off the Americans at a World Cup.
  • Can we win?
  • I mean, why do you think we're here?
  • In terms of other teams that could really challenge them for their crown, you're looking at the likes of Germany, who had a fantastic Euros last summer and have really kicked on since that final defeat to England.
  • A lot of players that were injured or were having troubles around that tournament, fitness-wise, are back and in the squad.
  • The host nation, Australia, are real dark horses for me.
  • Sam Kerr is such a hugely phenomenal player.
  • The team they've built around her is really a golden generation of players for the Australian women's national team.
  • And there's a real, real desire to perform well on the big stage.
  • I sort of almost look at the image of Brandi Chastain celebrating the winning goal with her shirt off at the 99 World Cup.
  • It's become such an iconic and game-changing moment for football in the US. And then Chloe Kelly at the Euros last summer with her shirt off celebrating the winning goal in England in front of 90,000 fans at Wembley.
  • And then I think about how hugely influential Sam Kerr is going to be in this tournament.
  • It almost feels slightly written that she has a moment like that on home soil that really kind of elevates Australian football.
  • If two people are marking me, that means someone else is free.
  • Whatever it takes to win, honestly.
  • And if I take away two players, good for them.
  • We've got electric speed everywhere else.
  • Of course, there's an expectation in terms of we've done well at the last tournament.
  • But in terms of a World Cup compared to a Euros, it's two completely different tournaments.
  • We just want to go out and focus on each game as it comes, control what we can control, and make sure that we're in the best possible place for the results to go our way.
  • England's chances at this tournament, I think, have really changed over the course of this year.
  • By February time, many people had England as favourites to win the tournament.
  • I think that's changed a little bit with the injuries to the sides, particularly to Leah Williamson, who is obviously so influential on the pitch, but also so important to the team as the captain.
  • You're adding her absence onto the loss of Jill Scott and Ellen White, who retired last summer.
  • Beth Mead, who hasn't managed to get back in time from her ACL injury.
  • Fran Kirby, who has a knee problem herself and is ruled out.
  • And so we're relying on a lot of sort of new, younger players that haven't got many caps to step in on the biggest of stages.
  • There's some fantastic talent there.
  • I think the attacking lineup is still one of the best in the world, but I really worry about England defensively, because that back line really, really hasn't been tested against some of the biggest teams in the world.
