Not a clear and obvious handball? Are you mental? She tried to bat it away like she was playing volleyball, you could see it bend her fingers.

Think it was a fan that blew a whistle the first time but not sure why she restarted just to blow her own whistle immediately.

Not seeing enough going forward from Stanway, Hemp or Toone and Russo's finishing is inconsistent at best. Should drop one of the first three for Daly and have Russo holding the ball up with Daly getting on the end of passes/crosses as she's the much better finisher. Wiegman relying too much on the reliable players from her tenure and putting too much faith in Toone and Russo's partnership from United whilst leaving the WSLs top scorer on the bench.

God you lot are so boring. If you aren't interested then just don't post.

That would be huge. Can't see it.

It's pretty big in Australia. New Zealand struggled with ticket sales, they recently gave away 20,000 extra.

I'm struggling this pre-season with these transfers, not because of the wages paid but because it's such an obviously corrupt way for clubs to get around FFP.

Good goal by NZ as well, result that should improve interest in the tournament. Ireland have a good chance of another upset here.

Think that's more of an insult to women than a woman never having a job in the mens game, personally. "There you go love, aren't we amazing, off you pop now the men are here to work".

What an absolute joke that whole saga was. Wish they were getting called out on it properly rather than it being swept under the rug.

And Navas went to forest in January when we should have really looked at upgrading him once we realised how he was struggling.

Yep, his stats show that any shot on target has a 40-50% chance of going in.

22 goals and 21 assists in 201 appearances. If by regularly you mean a goal and assist for every 10 games he played then sure. I'd also disagree that he's miles better than Edozie. Edozies minutes last season add up to the equivalent of 6 full matches and he looked very dangerous, admittedly it didn't translate to goal involvements but that's a very small sample size.

Excellent revisionism, he'd have been head and shoulders at cutting back and laying it off to the fullback and then actually running past players twice in the whole season to score.

I was about to make a point about Kompany taking no time at all to get Burnley going and ask why we can't, for once, hit the ground running. However having looked at Burnleys results last season they actually drew 7 of their first 12 games and didn't go top until 14 weeks into the season. In short, i've flipped around slightly and reckon we need to be patient and should expect results to properly pick up around mid october. (They did however only lose three games all season)

Another incident earlier in the highlights where the ball is going down the left and he is in front of his near post (as in, not between the posts) and the ball is squared to be tapped into an empty net. Not sure how they didn't score but he wouldn't have been able to save it even if they'd put the ball in the middle of the goal.

We won't get promoted with him in goal, barring a freak season like we had with Forster under Poch where our defence allows the lowest amount of shots on target.

Because £100million gets you one very good Premier League player nowadays. The fact the same amount buys our best 3 or 4 players (or more) shows how bad we were.

Didn't want the home one but I always use them and to be honest i'm not even sure they're knock offs, I think they're just direct from source. Either that or they are incredibly good.

Yeah, have to admit even JWP and Lavia wouldn't bother me as long as we got a decent fee for them. Would be more annoyed losing Sulemana and Alcaraz at this point - fresh blood to try and build an exciting side around.

No, I just took you at your word. If you meant something else then that's fair enough.

You could do what I do and just not use social media, only check this thread once every couple of days and then be caught unawares when a signing is made.

Hopefully we stop hearing Liverpool fans harp on about City being middle East funded now that they've hopped on the dodgy as fuck Saudi gravy train.

"The only striker I would put any hope in for goals is Tella" If you meant forward then fair enough.

Tella played on the wing for Burnley, it would be a mistake to bring him back and immediately hand him a different role than the one he was so successful in.
