Finally, thank you KCX and Laia
- i didn't actually celebrate here cuz i kinda forgot about the live thread but that was a good header :D

I do actually like to see LCL come up instead of Birmingham, just because they have the squad (and investment) to give teams in the WSL trouble.

So we played her out of position for half a game and now we've subbed her off??
- Ngl it flows so much better now though
  
  well no shit it would, you play someone who's never played midfield on their debut XD

Ngl our passing pretty shite today

bruv how the fuck is the official screen going dark

been a while since we've had a game i'm not too sleepy to watch /lh

Kyra is becoming quite the player

Lol ok what a nonchalant tap in for Stina

Katie why are you going that far wide?

that's a simple one for stina

hooo, that was close to a third.

Ngl I still don't know why Nighswonger is in midfield
- I read that she was a midfielder at college and was in the NWSL draft as one. Gotham converted her to LB. Her versatility in this regard was also mentioned as one of her key qualities when her transfer was announced. It allows McCabe to be used as a wide forward without losing the LB bring able to move into a midfield position.

Foxy on

I didn't know Gary Neville played for LCL
