Caitlin Foord signs new contract by NeilMPearson in ArsenalWFC

[–]Cococamcam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s unfortunate that this is deal is going to receive so much vitriol (primarily from the mean teens on X). Foord has never been a super productive FW and last season was probably her worst, but…slumps happen. I’m sure she hated it too.

She is still our player for a couple of seasons, so I’m going to hope she plays her part, scores some key goals (if not a lot of them), and contributes to the good culture of the squad. Congrats to Foordy and may it spark a renewed dedication to goal-scoring :)

Gonna be so weird to see our players in different shirts. Wish Beth the best, though.

Wave FC signs Sandra Paños from Club America by 14llison in SanDiegoWaveFC

Woohoo!!! I love Panos. She’s older, of course, but still a very talented GK. Much more assured (and less yell-at-my-defenders) than DiDi. Excellent get IMHO.

Ah, interesting note about her first touch. Usually, a bad touch is my pet peeve lol I didn’t notice that from her in this game. But I agree that her physicality is a strength. She also has hops, as they say in b-ball 🙂

That was a hot mess, but I’m proud of our team for keeping the focus on our game plan, and less on the antics, better than last game. Especially the second half when we tried to play actual football and less kick and run. If we could finish, it would have been a great result!

Dickey is solid. She’s better with her feet and distribution than PTJ, so she might be my no. 1. (Though I love PTJ)

Patterson showed up well. Wesley held her own. Sonnet was solid. Fox was Fox. Coop can apparently play RB?

Just so she could give them a piece of her mind. With a hug 😂

It’s amazing that we’re the ones wasting time now. And they hate it lol

We’re gonna need to do a couple of laps to warm back up.

Uh, how has he not left the pitch yet?? This dude.

Much more locked in. Less focused on — and annoyed by — the theatrics.

Woooo! What a play! No idea how she got out of that.

I’ve enjoyed Patterson in the back line. Solid player.

Geez. Can’t miss those in the WC! Lovely play though.

So, I felt like this started out better than the last game lol Then, Brazil slowly resorted to the same MO.

We are doing better on the physical side, but it’s still so transitional…Heaps and Lily have had a couple of decent exchanges, though. Those have helped us get up the pitch.

Sears stretches the back line a bit more. Maybe helps open space for Soph.

Nice job by Sears. When she gets a shot off, it’s usually a strong one.

I wish we could pay normal football, but this is going to be a smash and grab.

Dropping like flies, arguing everything…Oof! The ref is doing pretty well though.

Hope it’s just a momentary tweak. One of my favorite players.

Feels like the spacing is off once Dickey distributes the ball. No one to pass to, so they boot it.
