Euro 2025 final – England v Spain: What makes Lionesses manager Sarina Wiegman so successful?

Wiegman is also ruthless.
In 2022, he dropped the former England captain Steph Houghton and said goalkeeper Mary Earps would not be number one for the Euro 2025.
Honesty is appreciated by many people, but not all.
Midfielder Georgia Stanway said, “Sarina always says how it is directly, always, whether you like it, and something you need to take to the jaw.” He said.
“Take the people you need around you, and if you give you negative feedback, you know that the rest of the staff will help you correct it.”
Kirby went to the eaves of the team before he said he could not make a deduction for 2025 in 2022.
Brighton midfielder announced his international retirement early, but said that Wiegman quickly learned which style people could cope with.
“If it’s not right for the team, it will be directly with you, regardless of what you feel,” Kirby said.
“But he knows you, so you respect him when you need to have this hard conversation. You know it’s not personal, you just need more than you or you need to do more for the team.
He continued: “You have 80 or five caps, consistent with everyone. Everyone is treated the same.”
White says that when Wiegman first took over, they made a regular conversations and often discussed their analysis on Zoom away from the camp.
“He visits the clubs and communicates with the club managers. White will always take the phone to you,” White added.
“He can be reached very much. Yes, he is the manager, but he is a human. He wants the best for you.”
Bardsley’s injuries meant that he had to retire before he appeared under Wiegman, but he had a regular contact during the return attempt.
Former Goalkeeper was given a six -week deadline to return to the game, and when it was clear that he could not achieve it, he called Wiegman, the “very empathic”.
“He’s really emotionally clever and disappointed. He probably made his choice much easier, but he said very good things about my career. I was just grateful.” He said.
“I would love to play under him. He took time to chat and I really appreciate it because he didn’t have to do it.”
However, Houghton did not feel that he was given the same treatment and criticized Wiegman’s approach to him.
Houghton, who wrote in his book, said he felt “quite cruel” about how Wiegman reported that he would not be part of his squad for the 2023 World Cup.
“On Tuesday, we know the last World Cup team.”
“On Monday, there was a look at the st George’s Park for Nike. When I returned to the locker room, I made a kidnapped call from Sarina. He didn’t know that I was there, so when I told him, he said he didn’t take me, he said he didn’t.
“I found myself wondering if I hadn’t been in St George’s Park.
“Frankly, he raised his mind, which is good and I should respect it. The problem was more of a phone with the phone, and he knew he would tell me that I wasn’t in plans. I thought he called for a face -to -face conversation, given my career.”
