Hi Al. Who will you be supporting at EURO 2025?

Lionesses. It isn’t an exaggeration to say that Euro 2022 changed my life. I’m trying to temper expectations but I will be cheering the Lionesses on all the way this summer.

If you had to choose one of your songs to inspire your team, which one would you pick?

I’d inspire the Lionesses with 'Subaru' - the smooth sax soundtrack to their journey home as champions.

Which player are you most looking forward to watching and why at EURO 2025?

I’m really excited to see how some of England’s younger talent perform out in Switzerland. We’ve seen in the past, the benefit of having this freedom to cook and the lack of expectation from other teams knowing how to set up against them. I can see super-subs in the form of Grace Clinton and Michelle Agyemang doing something very special.

Who is your favourite all-time women’s player?

My all-time favourite women’s player is Safia Middleton-Patel - Manchester United player and Welsh squad’s second keeper. The way Safia holds herself on and off the pitch as a spokesperson for autism, perfectly summarises why the women’s game is so powerful.

If you were a professional footballer, which position would you play and why?

If I were a professional player I would pick up my old position as a very lazy number 10, hanging on the backline and sauntering in for a glory tap-in. The pace might not be up to much but the gaffer can’t leave me out for that touch - a modern-day Dimitar Berbatov.

Can the Lionesses retain the trophy they won in 2022?

The standard of the women’s game has transformed even since 2022, and to get out of the groups would be an achievement in itself. It’s going to be an incredibly tough tournament but then managing momentum, grinding out results and keeping the right mentality is Sarina’s bread and butter. I think we can do it.

Which nation could be the surprise package of the tournament?

A team that have consistently bottled it on the international stage that I think are due a moment is France. They’ve lost two powerhouses in Wendie Reynard and Le Sommer but I just have a feeling this could be their year.

Who will win EURO 2025?

COME ON ENGLAND!

Sports Team’s new album ‘Boys These Days’ is out now.
