I hope we can show world wide again the Orange March of the Orange fans heading towards the matches and hopefully the final. Charkov: Women Euro to the Doetinchem stadium: Trying to do your work in the middle of the Orange march:

your right, they can improve! but if ONLY based on the last two score lines(3-0, 7-0 vs Chile), they look like the best team in the world right now with the US a close 2nd. in ti I mean the US beat AUS by only two(5-3) & Chile, 4-0 in their last encoutners then looking at the other top ranked squads recent games #2 Germany only managed a 2-0 win over Chile, #3 England lost to New Zealand(whio the US blew apart 5-0 a week ago) #4 France only managed a 3-1 win over Thailand(a team that got blown away by Belguim yesterday, 6-1, who Jill Ellis/US obliterated a week before #5 Canada, not sure if they understand the rule book; someone else other than Chrstine Sinclair is allowed to take shots & score.....ehh? but as I've mentioned before maybe the other teams are saving(or hiding) their best for last?
Somewhat long for the casual fan but I suppose it could be broken into groups. No Martens for Netherlands?! Has playing for Barcelona stunted her growth? Someone on Twitter last year posted a video captioned "Dutch girls doing Cruyff turns like it's 1974" I think it featured Martens, van de Donk, and one other. Overall, one of the most entertaining teams and they now have a big Orange following of fans in the stands I've been picking Majri first, but Cascarino's a good choice, too. For Brazil I've aimed at the American fans by picking Debinha, Andressinha, and Camila because they play in the NWSL and they do have wonderful qualities (although All White Kit's Chris Henderson thinks Camila's been awful since coming back from injury) Everyone's all over the board on Germany - I've heard Popp as well as Melanie Leupolz. Foord over Kerr for Australia? Really? Everyone's going to ignore that! I look forward to seeing Cuthbert for Scotland (where I'll already be keeping an eye on Kim Little) and Paredes for Spain (where I'll regret not seeing Vero Boquete and the league MVP from Atletico Madrid whose name escapes me at the moment) ADD: Cuthbert and Jessie Fleming could both be added to the U-21 list, right?
I guess that's Nadeshiko fan in me, tend to value creative midfildiers over good finishers. Yes, somehow I forgot how young they both are. Fleming was playing in Rio Olympics 3 years ago - that probably misled me the most
https://www.ad.nl/wk-vrouwenvoetbal/b-team-leeuwinnen-wint-opnieuw-van-australie~aabc5c70/ The Orange Lionesses reserves against the Aussi reserves did a repeat of the winning Saturday. ‘B-team’ Leeuwinnen wint opnieuw van Australië Een dag na de gewonnen oefeninterland in Eindhoven hebben de Nederlandse voetbalsters wederom Australië verslagen. Beide landen troffen elkaar zondag op het complex van de KNVB in Zeist voor een besloten trainingswedstrijd waarin voornamelijk de reserves van gisteren in actie kwamen. De ‘Leeuwinnen’ wonnen met 3-1. "B-team" Lionesses beat Australia again A day after the won friendly sparring match in Eindhoven, the Dutch women football players again beat Australia. Both countries met each other on Sunday at the KNVB complex in Zeist for a closed training match in which mainly the reserves of yesterday came into action. The "Lionesses" won 3-1.
Oh my...after 21 minutes Norway already 4-0 against South Africa. EDIT: 5-0 at HT but A very difficult half for @Banyana_Banyana where they could not find their rythm, partly because they spent 3 & a half hours on the bus in what is normally an hour & a half trip due to heavy traffic, had a quick warm up and kicked off. But also Norway took their chances well— Banyana_Banyana (@Banyana_Banyana) June 2, 2019 match started 30 min late
Would love to see a replay of The Netherlands vs. Australia if anyone can find one. I will look as well, of course! Tks.
Heard Argentina are playing a warm-up friendly against a touring team tomorrow. Nothing official so far.
odd list since it's obviously not mean't to be the ten best players, but then it has a strange combo of semi faded vets with newbies that don't look all that good. I would go more with Kerr Miedema Cuthbert Diani Endler Daly Heath Nakajma Bonesera Lawrence (agree though with Hansen) I believe that coaching will be the most important factor on who's going to win the WC(rather than any individual player). So look out for Wiegmann(Dutch coach). One interesting tidbit; except for the current French one, every coach that's been able to beat Jill Ellis(and there's been plenty) has been fired from their job. Makes you wonder if a lil black magic will to come into play?

Mod request. Could you all start moving specific team posts to the relevant group threads? I'm going to open a new, general thread for things like discussion attendance or best player, media coverage and such. Going to keep this open for now, but it will be closed on June 7.
One day, I'll end calling her Bonesera too, after seeing you call her this way so often on these boards. You always like when I correct your spelling, don't you, @hotjam2? But at least with players you obviously appreciate, as Bonansea, you could make a little effort!
just found this youtube channel for the Reggie Girlz. They've been showing all their games live or on replay. Hopefully they cab survive the scourge of the FIFA internet police & their WC games as well JFFLIVE - YouTube
