Transcript
00:00Yeah, so at the back of the Euros we had a conversation, and of course competition has started already, and Millie told me that she was going to retire from international football, which is also now spread in the world, so yeah, I thought we had a very good conversation.
00:16Of course, she has been huge for us, for me, for the team, on and off the pitch, also even before I came in, she has been a great personality and a leader on and off the pitch, and yeah, I'm just really grateful that I've been just a little bit part of her journey, and yeah, grateful that she's been part of my team.
00:40Did you want her to be available for the build-up to the World Cup in two years' time?
00:43Yes, of course, I wanted that. As the same, like, for the Euros, what she said, yeah, she wasn't ready, and she needed to get things sorted, and yeah, like, she's still a very good player, so I want her in the squad, but I totally respect, understand the decisions she makes for life.
