    Replying to @KellySomers
    Gareth Southgate is the manager I’ve interviewed the most in my career, & is someone I’ve learned a lot from. I had a little go at summising my personal reflections on him from a reporter’s POV for @BBCSport @BBCMOTD… bbc.co.uk/sport/football…

    Fair play to Jamie Vardy, who was on my train from Leicester. Just got off & he was walking along chatting to a young #lcfc fan, & I overheard him say his brother was a big fan - to which Vardy responded “quick, let’s get him on FaceTime”. What a way to make a child’s day 👏🏻 😊

    On Saturday I got a message from a man on Instagram, telling me myself & other females should get off final score & stick to women’s football. I searched the man, he has a daughter. Does he send her the same message? That she can only do certain jobs? #IWD

    Pretty surreal day today seeing this confirmed ☺️ - beyond excited to be @BBCSport’s England reporter at this summer’s Euros & to be trusted to bring to life the stories of Gareth Southgate’s exciting young team. Let’s hope it’s a summer to remember! ☀️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 #bbcfootball #Euro2020

    Andy Murray is one of my fav sportspeople ever. Not just because he won things, but because he refused to be beaten - with injuries & in games. Thats why, even tonight, we thought he could do it… as sports fans we always want to believe. And with Andy we always did. 🎾😭

    The WSL is a better place with @VivianneMiedema in it 🥰 and Arsenal are a better team with her in it too. Viv has unfinished business and says winning with Arsenal means more too. Full interview available on @ArsenalWFC.

    Tragic news about Christian Atsu. I was working at Bournemouth when he was there, and he was the sweetest, gentlest man. And every time I saw him at games in the years that followed, he never failed to come over and say hello and ask how I was. RIP ❤️

    One day, I’m convinced Lotte Wubben Moy will take over the world 🌎👸✨. Could have sat all day chatting to her about Arsenal, injuries, England & why she’s so passionate about making positive change. Interview across @BBCMOTD this weekend inc Football Focus at 12. #bbcfootball
