Really excited to see Izzy moving through the ranks. Really thinks she has the chops manage the first team eventually and this is another step in the right direction.

It certainly feels like this is the long term plan/goal for her. Hopefully she continues to progress

Me too but I can't see her leaving her current employers.

I think if she's indicated she wont sign a new contract then United will be tempted to cash in now and we might make an offer they cant refuse (and we should as she'd be an excellent signing). United have done well at finding players on free/cheap transfer who are ready to step up. But they still seem unwilling to really make any serious statement in the transfer market.

This is tenuous at best but I know someone who got chatting to her sister on the flight back from Switzerland and without going into to much detail it sounded as though Arsenal and City were deemed as more appealing "projects" on her side.

That's really good to know, thanks.

Also worth noting that United activated a 12 month extension to her contract this summer which could mean:

1) She doesnt want to sign a new contract so theyve extended her terms to get a fee
2) United have chosen to extend her current terms so they can avoid upping her salary for another 12 months (which i cant see going down that well with the player)

Well I choose to believe that everything connected to the rag empire is fucking poisonous, so happy to see them hurt and fail.

Years of constant hype and bullshit coming to bite them on the arse is fine by me.

I noticed she wasn't in the squad for the Forest game.

Yes I spotted that.
Fujino was also missing.
Aside from goalkeepers #4 & 5, the known injuries (Fowler & Knaak) and the lesser spotted Tara O Haanlon, everybody else was in the squad.

I'd assume there will be another pre-season match arranged for the weekend so we'll see then.
 
I've got to say, after the final game of last season I mentioned on here a couple of players ignored some of the kids asking for autographs during the signing - Kerolin was one I mentioned but over this summer my daughter has been bought our home shirt and the Brasil home shirt, both with Kerolin on the back and both times Kerolin has commented on the picture on social media and it's made my daughter's day each time.

Deserves mentioning

I think thats a good idea. They might not get used as much as the men's ones but we have a whole forum here and all of the traffic currently just gets lumped into one thread whether its about City or not. So we could defo be making better use of it ha.

OK, if nobody has any objections, I'll set up individual threads for each of the squad over the weekend
