Everton vs. Manchester City: Team News & Possible Lineups
Everton vs. Manchester City Women Lineups are derived from previous match days. We take into consideration how strong the opponents are, what players are injured and of course team news before the match.
Team News Everton
The latest team update from head coach Brian Sørensen: “Elise [Stenevik] is unfortunately out. She went off at half-time with a hamstring injury. It is quite severe, so she’ll be out for a while.”
Meanwhile the Toffees coach confirmed “Katja Snoeijs is back although Aurora Galli, Megan Finnigan and Courtney Brosnan are still out. Katie Robinson also returns after not being able to play against Aston Villa.”
What the coach has to say
Head coach Brian Sørensen on Manchester City: “They’re much more dynamic, they change formation during the game. We want to be super dynamic, so teams have a hard time working out what we are going to do,” he said. “I know Toni Payne and Kelly Gago get a lot of the praise because of what they’re doing, but it’s also Honoka Hayashi, Clare Wheeler and Ornella Vignola who allow them to do that.”
On the many injuries and being forced defensively: “It is [frustrating] but it’s not by choice. That’s why we put Ruby Mace down, because we need a bit more calmness and coolness. Her overall performance, I was happy with. Karen [Holmgaard] has been out also with a nerve injury but is potentially in contention.”
Team News Manchester City
Head coach Andrée Jeglertz with the latest update: “The team is fine. Of course, [there are] a couple of players not training who are on a longer rehab plan. Otherwise, [it was a] full week with more sessions, and we’re in a good place at the moment.”
The players absent due to ongoing rehabilitation are Mary Fowler, Lily Murphy and Alex Greenwood.
On the absence of Alex Greenwood: “I’m not worried that it will be a challenge in the coming weeks. We will always miss Alex when she’s not on the field, but at the same time, others will feel they need to take a bigger responsibility, and I think that is key.
“It shows the group is strong because I don’t need to tell them that. It gives the team the challenge of figuring out how to deal with it.”
What the coach has to say
Andrée Jeglertz after the 1-0 win over West Ham United: “Yeah, it’s almost like that, get the job done. We talked before that it’d be a desperate team we play because of their league situation so we knew it’d be like that.
“We talked a lot about it but I also felt it wasn’t desperate from us in the first half. There were some situations we could’ve done better but we showed we’re not 100% in each situation.
“But we did it, with that turnover it also shows something about the team, where we were lucky leading 1-0 at HT but second half was much better.”
