Vital win. Up to 2nd now but teams below us have games in hand.

Slightly off topic but the commentator mentioned about Englands current capt and defender out injured and if the England manager would consider bringing stef houghton back into the national side why is she not already back in the side anyhow..

Was discussed a couple of pages back in this very thread.

Chloe Kelly's played really well today. She seems a good character too in her interview just now. She was the obvious player of the match. Enjoyed the game tonight.

What a belting save that was btw

WHU weren't bad. Was a good game. Decent enough game. Next...

P.S. anyone going Utd v City, in Leigh. How do I get a ticket? Scrap that, clashes with men's game

As someone else already mentioned, there's some discussion about it a couple of pages back, but aside from reasons already mentioned there has been a suggestion from quite a few people around the women's football community and those who closely follow the England set up, that Steph didn't react very well when she didn't make the final Euros squad. There are definitely more obvious factors that have seen her lose her place - namely injuries, the emergence of other players and her age that are probably bigger factors, but I think she didn't leave the squad on great terms with the manager last year and that might well have made it even harder for her to find a way back.

Alex Greenwood and Chloe Kelly look like twins

I spent more than one occasion saying to myself WTF is Alex Greenwood doing up there? - (Second half, left wing, far away across the field!) - and it was Chloe Kelly al the time. I'm gonna have to take some binoculars - the number of blonde pony tails chasing about the ground is rather perplexing. I think it's time players wore coloured wigs.

It's weird.. I think that as well, but my wife thinks Mahrez and Walker are twins!

They look similar but hardly twins.
