  • Poppy (Pattinson) is improving, and she feels better and better. She’s not yet at 100% but when she came in against Chelsea, it was positive, and she had a good training week.
  • Isa Kardinaal started to run and even touches the ball now. She doesn’t train with the squad at the moment, but it will be very soon, hopefully next week.
  • LucĂ­a (Corrales) has a cartilage issue on the in the knee.
  • The next two weeks for DaniĂ«lle van de Donk will be crucial to see if she is closer to coming back, or if, unfortunately, it will be longer.
  • Sofia Jakobsson had a small injury, but she restarted training with the team. 
  • Corinne Henson has a hamstring problem.

What the coach has to say

Jocelyn PrĂŞcheur looked ahead to facing Tottenham Hotspur and how he thinks the team is doing so far this season:

“Tottenham have made has a very good evolution this season, and I think the arrival of the new coach as a new dynamic he started is very positive compared last season. I can feel the confidence of the group is so much better, their organisation also. They are doing a great job.

“I’m not surprised, because Tottenham have always had great players and very talented players. Now they have the good environment and probably the good cohesion to express themselves and perform, and that’s why they are forced in the table.

“I like they are very disciplined defensively, speaking, very aggressive on the ball. They are smart switching, sometimes pressing very high, sometimes very more compact. They have a middle block, it is complicated to go through. This game is very exciting for us, because Tottenham is performing very well this season.”

Team News Tottenham Hotspur

Chris Williams took charge of the pre-match press conference. He reported that “all players who were involved in the win against Liverpool is available for this weekend’s clash”. 

Meanwhile long-term absentees Maite Oroz, Ella Morris and Luana Buhler remain unavailable for selection.

What the coach has to say

Chris Williams on London City Lionesses: “From our own point of view, obviously, we can only speak about ourselves. It’s the old cliche of we’re just looking at the next game ahead and taking things from there. We’ve set ourselves short, medium and long-term goals across the season to go for, and we’re running into those nicely at this moment in time. We are obviously aware that London City Lionesses are a good team as well. They’ve recruited well over the summer and started the season well.

“What we have to do is look at what the opposition’s strengths are, which obviously clearly – they do score goals. So, in preparation with the goalkeepers, we prepare them for what potential threats they’ve going to face and then link that in with the back four and midfield units as well, to make sure they’re aware what threats they’re going to do and how we then work on the training pitch, on how we’re going to nullify that.”
