Lionesses goalkeeper, Mary Earps has come out to react to the negativity surrounding England’s Euro 2024 campaign. She recently had her say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to her, the criticism is just as a result of people expecting a group of fantastic English players to deliver a really high level of performance while winning matches at the Euros tournament.
Earps added that what fans do not realize is that it can be difficult to do that sometimes under excessive pressure.
Her words, “It’s a world of public opinion and that pressure to deliver and perform is a privilege. I don’t know where that quote comes from but there is an expectation that you can deliver a really high level of performance. People think you are fantastic players and of course sometimes it can be difficult to deal with but the reality is that is what comes with having great talent in your team. As England, there is always pressure. That is always how it is. Before the Euros we won [in 2022] there was always talk about England winning a tournament. It kind of comes with the territory. It’s sometimes not nice but I know the boys will be good.”
WOW.
