Considering we have not won a ball in the last 15 minutes, it was expected, but still hurts alot, Zelem sleep walking not marking James.
Felt a bit inevitable in the last few minutes of the half.Shame we couldn’t have got through to half time at 2-0.
Not gonna lie here: Lauren James has to be up there alongside Sam Kerr and Megan Rapinoe as the most unlikable female footballers to have ever played the game.What the hell was James doing there after the goal? Did Turner get booked as well, just for being put in a head lock by James? She’s a talented player, obviously, but she is a bit of a thug too. Very difficult to like.
The booking on Turner was absolutely abysmal from the ref. Its not up to James to take the ball and restart the game, just an appalling decision! James was the one that went physical on Turner initially trying wrestle her to take the ball. James should have received a yellow card. To only book Millie is a farce!What the hell was James doing there after the goal? Did Turner get booked as well, just for being put in a head lock by James?

I agree. Won’t happen though, it’s Skinner. Parris & Malard coming in early to bring some energy and maybe hold the ball up every now and then would be nice.A couple of subs at halftime would not be the worst idea. Our energy levels will get dangerously a lot lower if nothing is done to revitalize the side.
And for some reason we have to keep giving her the benefit of the doubt, like when she keeps ‘accidentally’ stamping on opponents.Not gonna lie here: Lauren James has to be up there alongside Sam Kerr and Megan Rapinoe as the most unlikable female footballers to have ever played the game.
I don't need to be reminded of that. She fecked us up a few times with such liberties when she played for us.And for some reason we have to keep giving her the benefit of the doubt, like when she keeps ‘accidentally’ stamping on opponents.
She got a couple of reds at United right for being reckless?I don't need to be reminded of that. She fecked us up a few times with such liberties when she played for us.
Zelem was standing around nearby just as with the 1st goal. Skinner needs to get on top of that!Leaving Lauren James unmarked in the box is madness. Somebody must have that job? Surely?
Even in a zonal marking system there's someone positionally supposed to be doing some marking
That's pretty standard unfortunately. Her setpieces are a great strength but we pay for them in other ways.Zelem was standing around nearby just as with the 1st goal. Skinner needs to get on top of that!
The problem for me is Chelsea is bullying us with speed and strength, Ramirez is like a Russo on steroidsThat's pretty standard unfortunately. Her setpieces are a great strength but we pay for them in other ways.
Ladd+Naalsund might have a better chance here but Skinner hasn't used that combination so we don't know. Nor does he sub Zelem. More likely to take off Williams.
Ah Toone not Williams. Same concept, different player.That's pretty standard unfortunately. Her setpieces are a great strength but we pay for them in other ways.

It really is.These commentators are so desperate for Chelsea, it's pathetic.
It sounds like they are jerking to the Emma Hayes farewell tour in the same way they go on the Jürgen Klopp farewell tour in the men's game.These commentators are so desperate for Chelsea, it's pathetic.
