Can someone tell me who were the missing players today and why? I know that one was Martha Thomas.

Yeah Martha was one, Drew Spence is still injured, Grace Clinton, Amy Turner, Luana Buhler and Shuang Wang were all out of the squad. No mention of why any of them were missing. Hope it’s not long term though as I’d rather not see Eve or Ash at CB in the WSL!

Apparently Martha was out because of a hamstring injury and Grace was illness. Not sure about Luana or Amy, assume Luanas is maybe the injury she picked up in the Arsenal game thinking about it.

Interesting that it’s a loan. I saw her IG post before seeing we signed her and it looked like she was leaving permanently.

Grace Clinton was magnificent!
The crazy conditions affected things and love that Vilahamn approaches the game much like Ange; however, I don't understand why he plays both Thomas and England. The play isn't so fluid as when it was just Thomas upfront. Also unsure why he moved the dominating Summanen from defensive midfield to central defense when he's got a new centre half on the bench.
But a wins a win and that's the important thing.

I think Beth and Martha just need time to get used to where each other will be. Martha has shown to be great in the 10 and puts in a better shift than most in that position.
Nilden isn’t a centre half, she’s a left back. But still would have preferred her in there than Eveliina. Our defence fell apart a bit when Amy Turner went off and she moved back there.

I'd read that Nilden was a centre back and have checked again and I assume she's played there but a lot of info looks old; wiki says she's a centre back or midfielder! If she's a left back I understand why Summanen was moved, but with Buhler injured and Zadorsky on loan we sound short at centre back.

Didn't know she went out on loan (and to West Ham), just looked it up there.

Yeah I I wasn’t 100% when we signed her because every here I read it said CB but clips of seen she was playing at LB. But she cleared it up for everyone in her welcome interview
Definitely short at CB. Hopefully Amy can get over this knock so she can play the full 90 and hopefully Luana is back soon! I understand why Shelina would want to go for more minutes though as much as we could use her right now.
