England's qualifying campaign for the 2027 Women's World Cup is officially underway. The Lionesses started it with a 6-1 win over Ukraine on Tuesday and will continue their quest to secure a place in Brazil when hosting Iceland on Saturday. As runners-up in 2023, few would not expect Sarina Wiegman's side to achieve as much, but who the manager will choose to represent the European champions in South America is a little less certain.

When Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney bought Wrexham in 2020, the Welsh club were a long way from the Premier League. Back then, the Red Dragons were still in the National League, the top tier of non-league. But since returning to the EFL in 2023, Wrexham's rise has been literally unprecedented, becoming the first team in English football to achieve three successive promotions. Now, they're after a fourth.

Tottenham Hotspur remain only one point clear of the Premier League relegation zone following an awful 3-1 defeat at home to Crystal Palace on Thursday evening. West Ham United and Nottingham Forest's positive results on Wednesday ramped up the pressure on Spurs to beat the Eagles in what was seen as one of their more winnable fixtures during the run-in, but another horrendous performance has left them teetering above the drop zone and there is already uncertainly over the future of head coach Igor Tudor after three games in charge.

Lucy Bronze continues to cement her legacy as one of the greatest players to ever pull on an England shirt, but the veteran defender remains humble about her remarkable longevity. During the Lionesses' 2-0 victory over Iceland, the 34-year-old earned her 145th international cap, moving her into third place on the all-time appearances list for the women’s national team. It was a vintage performance from the full-back, who contributed both a goal and an assist to secure the win.

Chelsea star Lauren James has opened up about the public scrutiny regarding her personality and the "lazy" labels often attached to her playing style. James insists that her laid-back nature is a reflection of her introverted character rather than a lack of professional desire.
