Summary
And breathe. It's all been kicking off in the Upfront WhatsApp group this past week - from Fran Kirby's retirement, to Millie Bright's shock announcement, to the actual bloomin' Euros squad itself! Chloe and Rachel are ready to react to it all.
They explain why Millie Bright should tell the haters to do one – while Clo is very excited about Michelle Agyemang's inclusion. But Rach has concerns about England's midfield...
Elsewhere, Ireland waved goodbye to a legend last week too in Louise Quinn! Clo explains how a dressing room adapts to the departure of a big personality. Plus, we give our honest thoughts on Robert Vilahamn's sacking – and why it took Spurs so long to make their decision.
