Robyn Cowen talking some shite at the end then!
Arsenal got lucky, got away with a clean penalty and keeper makes a massive mistake. If City can be more direct and lethal this game could of been over well before the final whistle.

I only got in to see the last 5 minutes of the first half and the second but from what i saw we dominated and should have won. Unfortunate mistake from the keeper but apart from that she’s played well. After a poor last season i been impressed by the way we’ve played so far. Maybe just lacking that cutting edge.

Ah, more direct and lethal, if only we had more of the attempts like Fowler's right at the end rather than 30 odd passes for it to go nowhere.

Shaw looks injured. We beat ourselves today. Had to feel for Keating hopefully she will learn from that.

Guess that's what we get for having an inexperienced keeper in goal. Not putting the defeat all on Keating but she did have a hand in both their goals as well as conceding a penalty. Didn't deserve to win that because our finishing wasn't good enough but we were much the better side in that 2nd half. Crossing was poor today and can only really recall 1 or 2 that found their mark. Bunny really should've score from one of them but headed it against the post instead.

First time I've watched the ladies for years. By far the better team, they didn't deserve to lose.

Need a strong midfielder to link up quicker with and feed off Bunny Shaw imo. Too much expected of her today.

This is gonna be one of them things that annoys me from now on.
Like when my brother pointed out how many times Stuart Pearce said “this football club”
Thanks for that ; )

literally every other sentence starts with "and actually" its infuriated me every time she's on the tv for about a year.

 

[waspish]

We haven't had decent goalie for years and that has been one of our biggest weakness!

Shaw thinks she's on Blackpool promenade.
She's shocking.

My ERO suggested much the same and I'm listing her best qualities and up pops the hold up ball, the pass to a blue shirt and our equaliser, but didn't do much else. She missed a couple of chances that should really have been buried.

It's this kind of performance that dispirits those members of the team who have worked their whatnots off. Lauren looked pissed off when she was subbed, and Chloe must think that her goal was a bit of a waste in the end.

We don't process the ball quickly enough and make a team effort to get the ball into the oppo area. You can see teams organising and reorganising all the time whilst we ponder on what options are instead of taking the first one and making the opposition commit.

Saw most of second half and can’t understand why Keating is playing when we have 2 international goalies not playing - are they injured! Also, apparently she burst into tears which just shows his young she is.
