WFAC 5th round 08/02 - Leicester H - KO - 14:00.

Safely through to the next round. Intensity was always going to drop in the 2nd but shame we conceded. Great to get Kerolin off the mark with a goal and also pleased for Bunny to be back and in the goals too after recent events.

Curious to learn when we draw Chelsea Away in the QF - is it later today or sometime tomorrow?

That 5th game against them still a possibility after Chelsea have come from a goal down to lead Everton 2-1 at the break.

Fujino has been the best player on the pitch. Seems to be getting better with every game

About the only player who understands the best way to the oppo goal is the shortest. I suspect that the number of backward passes equalled the sum total of backward passes in the rest of this round’s ties! We get the result but as a spectacle it’s turgid, stodgy and has a passing similarity to cold porridge.

Comfortable win but , boy , that was a cold wind in the West Stand . Great play by Fujino and Park : both technically good , direct going forward and excellent pressing. Lovely first goal for Kerolin but Roord is out of form . Looking forward to getting Chelsea away in the next round ....

Collectors item Yui giving the ball away twice in a minute. I do wish we would cut out these moments in games where we become sloppy - not very professional, just invites teams onto us.

Aoba has been fantastic - I'm so pleased as there were many who wanted her to be dropped for Kelly. She's a real talent.

She has the selfless team play I wanted from Kelly and chooses the right moment for a shot, not just shooting whenever she feels like.

She's grown on me, but I, also, wondered what the fuss was about. Not to say drop her, but wondered why she was starting game in, game out.

Her self confidence has, clearly, grown and her team mates really like her.

You can see that.

Yui really is the David Silva-Fernandinho hybrid of fantasy footy. Utter class - even if she did pass it weakly twice today.

Agree . Watching Yui is Magic .

I’m really looking forward to us having Hemp, Fujino and Kerolin as a possible front line. With Bunny to factor in too, as well as Fowler, that’s some excitement to come.
