Ella Toone and Alessia Russo have a new podcast with Vick Hope.

Despite getting on so well, both players say they are ‘complete opposites’ in many ways.

Russo picked up a love of country music from a spell playing in the United States, while Toone thinks it all “sounds the same”.

Russo’s favourite cuisine is Japanese but Toone would “rather go somewhere and eat chips”.

Russo is a big coffee fan, while Toone “doesn’t need it” – although that doesn’t stop her turning up for coffee dates and ordering an orange juice. She says she suffers a “FOMO” (fear of missing out) otherwise.

Toone also reveals she is not keen on London, where 25-year-old Russo is now based, as the Mancunian finds people in the capital “a bit rude” and the city’s public transport sends her anxiety “through the roof”.

“I like what I like,” she says. “That’s why I’m still in Tyldesley.”

One thing the pair do have in common is a shared taste in footwear. Russo reveals one of the things they first bonded over was the fact they “wore the same trainers” to their first England camp together.
