Stanway knows best cure for a Euro hangover!

MIDFIELDER Georgia Stanway is "fed up with talking" and wants "proper England" to prove their doubters wrong in their critical Euro 2025 clash with the Netherlands tomorrow night.

England's 2-1 tournament-opening loss to France has put them in a precarious position and anything less than victory over the 2017 champions will mean the Lionesses are in real danger of becoming the first defending champions to crash out in the group stage.

They have had plenty of time to unpack what Stanway says a friend encouraged her to view like a "bad night out", a hangover they think will be best cured by returning to their roots in Zurich.

"I think what we want going forward is just to make actions," she said. "We want to stop talking, hence why I didn't want to do the press conference today, because I'm fed up with talking.

"Now it's time that we focus and we want to put things on the grass. We want to make sure we put things right on the pitch. We want to create action from what happened on Saturday and the only way to do that is in the game on Wednesday.
