I’m not crying… you are. I had another post altogether but that will just have to wait because I just opened up my laptop and read the incredible news that I know you also read. I wasn’t expecting to be overwhelmed with joy, pride and excitement this early on a Wednesday morning (local time 7:40).
After missing out on several major tournaments because of injuries our Jordan Nobbs has been called up and will be playing at this year’s World Cup! How incredible is that? And yeah, I know she’s not technically an Arsenal player anymore which is absolutely dumb btw, BUT I will never not think of her as one of our own.
To have overcome so much adversity, so often and make the squad, at this point in her career is magical and I’m here for it.
I’m not going to comment on Beth missing out but what I will say is that Jordan is the perfect example of patience, perseverance and delayed reward. She’ll play in WCs for sure. It’s just not in the cards this summer and it sucks, I know.
The Dutch announced a provisional list as well but won’t get the final til June 30th. There are some players included that haven’t played much and others that have played waaaaaay too much haha.
In case you missed it, here’s my latest podcast.
