Upfront - A Women's Football Podcast

Chloe and Rachel are back after an opening weekend packed FULL of storylines! Except Brighton vs Aston Villa...

We look back on Arsenal's victory over London City Lionesses – and the Kangster dropping a huge world record transfer fee for Grace Geyoro. Plus, will Sam Kerr really breeze back into this Chelsea team? What does Grace Clinton's exit say about Manchester United? And can there be a better debut than scoring a hat-trick in the Merseyside derby?!

Previewing EVERY team in the WSL!

We're back! Chloe and Rachel catch up at Upfront's brand new HQ on everything that's happened since the Euros – which, somehow, was already a month ago.

We discuss Olivia Smith's record-breaking move to Arsenal and London City Lionesses' business so far: are they refreshing disruptors or bringing more imbalance to the league?

Plus, the WSL2 is pulling in stars from all over the place – we take a look at how this season's extra promotion spot is forcing clubs to go big or go home.

Olivia Smith, Michelle Kang's big bucks, and the WSL2 pressure cooker

Chloe and Rachel have just about peeled themselves off their ceilings in time to for our FINAL show of Euro 2025! And it's a big one...

Back by popular demand, it's our first-ever Upfront Awards for a major tournament! Who is our Player of the Tournament? What was Chloe's spiciest moment (possibly sponsored by Nandos)? And what was Rach's favourite snap?

We also discuss the impact of England's victory and how it compares to 2022!

ENGLAND ARE EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS... AGAIN! | Euro 2025 #15

It's here: England, the defending champions, take on Spain, the world champions. Chloe and Rachel are joined by England legend and BBC co-commentator Rachel Brown-Finnis to look ahead to what promises to be an extraordinary final.

They discuss England's journey and the media narratives that have swirled around it – plus, RBF reveals what she would tell these England players to unlock that Spain defence. We also find out about the secret behind Michelle Agyemang's ice-cold persona and there's even time for our score predictions! Sort of...

Our Euro 2025 Final Preview! | Euro 2025 #14

Aitana Bonmatí settled it with a cheeky moment of magic last night – but has a poor game left us feeling more optimistic about England's chances?

Chloe and Rachel discuss a tale of two goalkeepers and how Germany managed to restrict Spain so effectively. Plus, we answer your burning questions ahead of the final on Sunday! 

Will Wiegman change her starting XI? Will England thrive without the ball? And has Chloe's impersonation of Rachel got any better? Tune in to find out!

Spain snatch victory and we answer your questions! | Euro 2025 #13

What's good for England after the 80th minute isn't good for Rach's ulcerative colitis. But seriously: WHAT A GAME, WHAT A NIGHT!

Chloe and Rachel sit down with hoarse voices to relive England's comeback win against Italy and celebrate Michelle Agyemang's calmness beyond her years, Chloe Kelly's 'it's me' mentality, and some absolute much-needed grit.

We also salute Italy's run (but not some of their - ahem - dark arts) and ask: can Germany really do it again Spain? Chloe thinks so!

Queen Agyemang | Euro 2025 #12

Thought England vs Sweden was going to be the most chaotic game of the quarter-finals? Well last night Germany said: "hold my stein".

Chloe and Rachel relive another extraordinary penalty shootout and discuss how France managed to mess it up against 10 players for over 100 minutes.

Plus, Spain knocked the Swiss out – but the vibes were unrivalled. Rach tells us all about the atmosphere on Friday night!

Ann-Katrin Berger saves Germany and Spain break Swiss hearts! | Euro 2025 #11

One of the most emotional, chaotic, frustrating, heartbreaking, joyous matches you will ever see... but England are through!

Chloe and Rachel take a breath and try to work out what happened on an extraordinary night in Zurich! Like... why did Sweden's keeper take their fifth pen!?

England beat Sweden on penalties... somehow! | Euro 2025 #10

Marcus and Luke are back with a brand new edition of Lions Watch, the show dedicated to all things England! We are stumbling over ourselves with excitement for this one.

Jesse Lingard is the form player in the Premier League – but should Gareth Southgate give him the keys to the kingdom? And where does all this leave poor old Jack Grealish?

Elsewhere, if we needed any further evidence, Jude Bellingham was jaw-droppingly good this week: we drill down into his qualities. And the next stop on our journey through the 2010s brings us to World Cup 2014, where a young England squad came away with some stark truths, a glimmer of hope, and the prestigious honour of playing out the most forgettable football game in World Cup history. Join us!
