We all know that both Chelsea and Man City are always in the last 4 of every cup, every year. We also know if we are to make it to a final we usually need to beat both of them somehow, or hopefully just one. When I say hopefully it doesn’t mean that I’m not confident. I mean that for my own heart and anxiety.
If the girls beat LCL they’ll face Villa, who aren’t having the best season but neither are West Ham innit? Anyway, that means Chelsea play Man City allowing us to potentially, big potentially, get to another final.
Now, on to Stina. I love her, you love her, we all love her and she absolutely needs more minutes. Not only does she need more minutes, but Russo needs a break from time to time, same with Beth and others. I get that the staff know what they are doing but it also seems to me like players are being overplayed. I’m kinda worried actually. Also it’s not like Stina is a big drop-off from Alessia. Stina is world class, a clutch 9 and we need to be scoring lots of goals, and that’s what she does.
Lastly, before I head out to my 3rd ever pickleball tournament (wish me luck!!!) I wanted to say that I’m very excited about the girls playing City tomorrow. I know it sounds contradicting after what I said it the first paragraph but like I always say: a team that has McCabe, Little, Miedema, Mead and Walti, among others, is a team I’m always going to feel confident in, always and forever.
I’m also very curious to know what happens in the rest of the fixtures and hope to see a few upsets, wink wink.
