All the apps (and a few Italian fans I know) say never played at centre back. Covered right back and left mid so versatile and who knows what funky thing Rob has planned!
Fair enough. A left footed LB, finally!

I wonder if the idea is for Neville to push forward. I initially thought that she'd go back to the right and Grant on the left. That might still be the case and Nilden is coming in as squad / another option, but I wouldn't be against Neville being given the freedom of the wing.

I’ve been wondering too. We’re pretty stacked for wingers/forwards so maybe it’s just for rotation etc.

On that point though, I’m expecting a few to go out on loan this winter. We’ll need some of them too because we’ll have more players than squad players. Obvious ones are Ale and Pearse. Wouldn’t surprise me if Ellie Brazil also went on loan. With how long she was out for, it would be best for her to be playing often and I can’t see her getting too many minutes with the options we have.

FA Cup day & we're back in action after a lengthy break. Bristol City 'should' be an easy win and a chance to show-off some of our new signings.
Kick off 2pm at Brisbane Rd...See you there. COYSW!!

Spurs:
Votikova, Grant, Bartrip, Summanen, Neville, Petzelberger, Graham, Zhang, Naz, England (c), Bizet.
Subs: Spencer, Brazil, Vinberg, James, Ale, Ahtinen, Ayane.

Not sure who's the one covering centre back? Neville with Petz at left back? Summanen?

Summanen at CB in the graphics, dunno though it also has Bizet and Linyan in central midfield, seems soft

Strengthen the team so much, but seems we have players out of position and an unbalanced team due to it.

Didn't look good as we were 2 down. But as soon as we subbed into a balanced midfield we've scored twice with Beth England. 2-2 minutes left.

Last I saw the score was 1-2 then looked at and saw 3-2?! Bloody hell. Both men and women like to give us a heart attack eh?

It's was painful viewing up until we made the 3 subs, the starting formation really was bad. Naz missing some sitters didn't help neither. Summanen at CB just didn't work, Brazil at RB didn't work. It was all so disjointed but the changed made all the difference, we piled on the pressure & Ayane really shined.
It was a fantastic end to a painful game, we got the win though and march on...

Not good watching in the first half in particular. My nephew said at half time that they seem like they’re still asleep and that about summed it up. Too many players in the wrong positions who didn’t work. Game changed massively when Ahtinen came on. Such a class player, so happy to see her back.
