Hughesy 251 Posted July 2, 2015 In the end it was a typical England display, so sad to go out like that, especially when were the better team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our girls can come home proudly though given it's the first time an English womens team have made it that far and the furthest any England team have gone Mens or womens teams for 20 years so they can be proud despite the defeat. I'm proud of them for representing England in the right way and doing as well as they did.In hindsight based on the game we should have made the final but bad luck strikes at cruel times Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hughesy 251 Posted July 24, 2015 Thought I'd post this here as the first and second goals we scored were brilliant, although the keeper should've saved the first one. Players doing ok in preseason considering the whole team is new.http://youtu.be/uMikWcy5LuQ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hughesy 251 Posted July 30, 2015 Just beat Bristol City in a friendly, City fans going nuts gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside :joy: And it was one of our academy players that scored the winner B) City used their best players and still lost, L2 vs Championship. I know it's a friendly but I'm happy with the squad we now have, the manager has brought in 15 new players already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f1since08 59 Posted August 6, 2015 We've just signed Yann M'Villa on a season loan to buy deal, massive upgrade on Liam Bridcutt. With Adnan Januzaj probably coming on loan, all we need is a good, fast striker and at least one creative midfielder and we're sorted for the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah we're in desperate need of a striker too atm with only Harry Kane banging in the goals for us we need another quality finisher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f1since08 59 Posted August 6, 2015 Hmm. We've just released our kit numbers and 9 and 10 have been left free. Surely we're getting a striker or two? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But our next few games should be easier given we' re playing teams that you'd expect to see in the bottom half of the table the sooner we can get a quality finisher added to the team the better I'll feel though.

Yea and our teams problem is we've brought in 17 new players, so it's probably going to be a slow start until they gel. Shows pre season means nothing, as we won nearly every game including against Bristol City, only lost to Bournemouth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
