Groenen still injured, Boe Risa gets a start! Huge game, need to win!
Snap!
There you are, I was afraid there would be no game thread
Absolutely right. I've been slow this past couple of weeks so it's good that someone else has picked it up each time.There you are, I was afraid there would be no game thread

Is Ladd also injured? :-(
Russo putting on a show today!
Great counterattack, and what a finish by Toone!
Class football that!
Nice goal from Toone on counter-attack. Generous assist from Martha Thomas.
Nice counter, lovely goal from Toone.
Nice break from Everton, we got split wide open by that through ball there. Fortunately they shoot over.
Lost our way a bit when we have the ball, lots of sloppy passing.
Not entirely sure who Zelem played that ball for 
All got a bit messy really. Everton look more likely to do something at the moment.
ffs... That's been coming though
Calamity
Right after they'd shown Earps's clean sheet stats.
1-1.

Ouch. Thorisdottir/Earps mess up and neither of them take the ball, Everton slot home 1-1
95% sure Earps had that boll in her hands, shocking decision.
Disappointing 1-1. Everton should have been beaten off the park.
Faded 2nd half.
Fair result.
Fair result.
Not sure. I reckon she was still in the act of collecting it when the Everton player came through.
Our form is desperately frustrating at the moment. There's a position in the top three going begging and Spurs are looking better bets than us.
Doesn't feel like we are scoring enough and the past two games have shown we aren't capable of defending a narrow lead, these last 4 dropped points could prove to be very crucial when City find their top form again
Are we going to get empty platitudes or mansplaining of tactical formations from the manager this time I wonder?
What are the rules? If Earps has both hands on the ball on the ground is it a fould to kick it? From the replay shown like 2-3 minutes after she has both hands on the ball, but she has not lifted it up yet. My feeling is that if that happened to De Gea at Old Trafford they play would have been a Utd free kick 9 times out of 10.
Well, I am a pessimistic fan, but I think last games goal for Tottenham was just a fluke. I mean a free kick that bounced and launched perfectly in the top corner by luck. Would not happen again if they tried 100 000 times. And today Thorisdotter made a huge individual error, just keep blocking the Everton player until Earps has the ball covered.
And both games we had a huge chance denied after the equaliser, last time Russo and this time Toone. We are unlucky to not get 3 points in any of the games.
But yes, we are not good enough all in all, but a shame to almost bag the points and then lose out.
Earps - terrible blunder for Everton's goal just after getting treatment, otherwise good, punched one dangerous cross, claimed a few that were straight to her and came for over-hit through-balls
Battle - her best performance this season, created big chance for Thomas and several other crosses, some fierce tackles too.
Blundell - a mix of good and bad, nice pass out of defence in the build-up to our goal but poor passes straight to Everton players at other times
Mannion - generally ok, almost got herself in trouble a couple of times but just about got out of it in time. Unable to get her flick from Thomas' header on target.
Thorisdottir - didn't help Earps for Everton's goal given it was so soon after Earps had had treatment, a few nice passes out of defence, almost conceded an own goal when cutting out a cross
Zelem - poor throughout, rubbish free-kicks, regularly outmuscled in midfield, through-balls to no-one, amazed she avoided being substituted
Boe Risa - looked good relative to Zelem, composed in possession, though I didn't notice her do anything that special.
Toone - super goal, almost got a 2nd late on when her decent left-foot shot forced a good save
Russo - started well, nice pass to Thomas in the build-up to our goal, not involved much in the 2nd half apart from a shot from distance that was blocked
Galton - what has happened to Leah this season ? Crosses out of play, unable to retain possession.
Thomas - assist for Toone's goal, did well for her near post header from a corner, hopeless at holding up the ball, at best she won a free-kick, wasted chance set-up by Ona Batlle.
Subs:
Staniforth - barely noticed her apart from a rubbish shot off-target after Ella's cross was cut-out
Hanson - a couple of runs that ended with unconvincing crosses or passes that were easily cut-out
Manager - I didn't rate him when he was appointed and nothing that has happened since has made me change my mind. He's not a leader, he's someone who talks far too much. Alessia Russo is our biggest attacking threat, so why is she playing out on the right wing so we can accommodate Hayley Thomas ?
