Vesper 30,231 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 we just have never come all that close to being on Lyon and Barca's levels Lyon and Barca are now like the mens Real Madrid and Barca sides of womens football and before Barca became a womens team monster it was Eintracht Frankfurt and to a leeser degree (as they are only on 2 wins, 4 losses in CL Finals) VfL Wolfsburg Fulham Broadway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhForAGreavsie 6,078 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 The general consensus is that Barcelona are not as good this season as they were last yet we could, and did, consider ourselves unlucky to be eliminated by them last year. 12 months on and it will be amazing if we are not eliminated by them this time around. We have work to do to reach their level. Fulham Broadway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite the way we lost on Sunday, and and the fact that I think the result might have been closer had Emma been in charge, I would not prefer our ex manager. Sonia set up to play against Barcelona, Emma would have been more conservative which might have narrowed the margin of defeat. While that obviously sounds like a tick for Emma, I'm nevertheless happy that Sonia is trying to move us on. If we're going to add European and world club honours to our collection, we have to get better. I believe in Sonia. The squad all speak highly of her, with convincing examples of how she is improving their game. She's intense on the touchline; charming and diplomatic in the press room even though English is her third language. I genuinely believe that we will be a better side next season, and better still the season after that. Fulham Broadway and Vesper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal also playing tonight. If we win and they don't we are champions. If both clubs win, or both draw, or both lose, we'll need a point against Spurs next week to clinch the title.

Johnnyeye 7,511 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 was there ever any doubt? many congrats to the girls for an amazing season, league winners, league cup winners, CL semis, and can still add an FA Cup trophy. Goodluck in the final KTBFFH always 💙 Vesper and Fulham Broadway 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhForAGreavsie 6,078 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Six in a row!! Well done the girls. 🙂 The fans did well too. There was a pretty good turnout even though the 8:15pm midweek kick-off made it tough for people to attend and be fit for work/school the next day. Nowhere near the three-thousand odd that travelled to the ManU game last season but they made enough noise to help the team over the line. We're nine points clear at the top with two games to play. That means we're almost certain to win the title with a bigger points margin this season, than the combined total by which we won the last five. In fact, if we stretch the lead any more, we might win it by double the combined winning margins from 2020 to 2024.

OhForAGreavsie 6,078 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 The girls are at Tottenham Hotspur stadium today. We're told that they will receive a guard of honour before the 14:15 kick off. Some victory laps are just sweeter than others. 🙂 Johnnyeye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
