WSL: Aston Villa V Leicester City, 12:30KO.

[StriderHiryu]

Natasha Flint has easily been the best player on the pitch. Ayoze Perez should take notes from her performance!

[moore_94]

Fully deserved goal though, been the much better side

[Phube]

You’d be a bit embarrassed to celebrate that, even if it’s your first ever top flight goal!

Could they come and take corners for the mens team?

Most look stronger than Maddison 😂

[Phube]

Oh now defenders going down injured. Same old City!

My only issue is the commentary is like one second behind… which is annoying (or the commentator is slow!)

Commentary is awful  it…..sounds…..umm…like…..she…..ummm…sat…on the…..umm….toilet

 

Ladies playing really well thou. Important to grab this win not only for confidence etc but Villa regarded as relegation candidates

Please don’t misconstrue this comment, but I wonder if the women’s team needs it own dedicated section? If it grows in popularity and gets some real traction, it could make this section very busy/confusing once gossip/transfers/injuries etc come

into play? Just a thought. But go girls! 👍

Trouble is if we want support to grow for the ladies (imo we should) then putting them into a sub-forum could take traffic away.

 

Better to get the big boss @Mark to look into having the ability to change thread title colours, then we can have everything relating to the mens game in blue, everything for the womens game in red maybe? That way we're separate but together.

Nah, goalkeeper should be embarrassed, they all count and it’s her first WSL goal! To be fair if it was me scoring that goal on the prem, I’d be whipping my shirt of swinging it around my head.

Pink! No, wait...

Glad we are covering these games ! Well done OP 

[Pliskin]

Flint is decent player, holds the ball up well and has pretty decent footwork. We’ve certainly been the much better side, need to get the attackers in on goal more, this GK is extremely hit and….. fumble.

Lol, if it was me who scored.. I'd be running to the crowd with my hands cupped behind my ears and then twatting the corner the flag into a thousand bits.

 

A goal is a goal

Poor corner flags - so unloved  

[Phube]

What the hell are those ref’s shorts?! 

[smudger63]

I've enjoyed the first half. We've looked decent and fully deserve to be in front. I would take  Bailey-Gayle off though, who has been a bit rubbish and put on Lachante Paul who is quicker and better.

Would also be worth a booking for taking your top off!

England’s best strikers in order

 

1) Tasha Flint

2) Ellen White

3) Harry Kane

They need to let Bailey-Gayle attack a bit more, playing as a wingback and doesn't look like she is allowed to get forward much, don't think Lachante Paul would be any different in this system

Has the commentator just said the first home game is against Manchester City? 🤔 

[phoneticerror]

Is the… commentator… the daughter… of… Christopher… Walken?

It's... the Shatner... School... of commentary...

 

Have Aston Villa had a decent pre-season, or did they leave it to the AI? Seems to be a lot of players going down...

Dammit. X2!
