Yer right re Chloe Kelly - she seems to be the only one who understands the virtue and reward of shooting when there is a clear shooting chance no matter whether yer in or out of the box.
Yet she repeatedly shot at the keepers stomach on Sunday, often when she could have passed to players in better positions.

Worst game I've seen her have.

Whoever made the shot seemed to find the arms of the Brighton keeper. I think that is one of the biggest differences in the women's and men's games - the men seem to have a far better radar system that finds the empty bits of the net whereas the women are seem more than happy to have got the shot on target.

If that first shot, timed at 21 seconds, had gone in, we'd have had a different tale. Funny how a game of football turns on an instant.
 
it's simple really and if you don't buy a ticket you are never going to win the lotto

Maybe it's the coaching side of the game with playing the easy pass and then trying to get around the back and a low cross into the box, Just bloody SHOOT at the first opportunity and if the Keeper saves it or pushes it out or turns it around the post for a corner it will get fans off their bums
Yes indeed. I would think that 50% of our passes come within the 'easy' category, and I suspect that the mantra pre-match, at HT and the whole week of training is that we keep possession no matter what. Far too often we can have four, five, six or any number of passes and the last one leaves yer pulling out yer hair 'cos it's gone wayward.

the best way to improve the Womens game is to keep it simple and basic
 
Quite a few missed the keeper, because they weren't on target, 22 if memory serves me well (I don't want to look back it was depressing enough the once).
Well, i decided as we got the second half underway that if Brighton scored first I was going home. Thirty odd mins later I bounded up and they hadn't opened the big gate - back out through the turnstile!
 
England squad, Park and Roebuck out this time.
I understand Ellie not being called, as she is not playing, but if you follow the same logic, why is Hampton in the squad? She is nowhere near playing at Chelsea
