When she gets back, we'll have a conversation,» she said.

«She needs a holiday. She's done an incredible job. You have to remember she only came in in September.

»Everybody said to me, 'do you think she can win the Euros?' and I said, 'it's a very short time span that.' But my goodness, she has moulded the team together. Not just the players, the team around her. «There's a togetherness.

You have to be in it to feel it. When we interviewed her, we knew we were getting the best tactical and technical coach in the world. What we didn't know was that we were getting this exceptional human being.» FA chief executive Mark Bullingham said Wiegman was their top managerial target last year and hopes that she will be with England «for a long time».

«We were delighted to secure her, even though in our wildest dreams, we thought that this tournament might be too early,» Bullingham said. «We weren't sure we'd win this one. We were hoping we would win one in the future, so she achieved brilliant results earlier than we could have ever hoped.
