"Absolutely. I don't know. It would be great to play some of the girls I've played with over so many years. But, you know what, may the best team win."
"Nineteen of City's 58 goals have been scored by Shaw, who has been the star of the show. The focal point of the attack, she has looked unstoppable and will surely be named as the WSL's player of the season. City have also had great weapons down the flanks, with the England winger Lauren Hemp on one side and the Netherlands right-back Kerstin Casparij surging forward on the other."
"They are lethal from set pieces, too, aided by the deliveries from Greenwood, whose career total of 19 WSL assists from set pieces is a record. It's been a big week for Manchester City's women's team, crowned champions when Arsenal failed to beat Brighton, and then the news that key player Khadija Shaw will be heading elsewhere once the season is over."
"That Chelsea are the favourites to sign Shaw only adds to the heady mix of this cup semi; City are going for the double. Chelsea are attempting to rescue a disappointing season in the WSL and Champions League by adding the FA Cup to the League Cup. This is massive, frankly. Kick-off is at 3.30pm UK time."
Brighton advanced to Wembley after beating Arsenal and Liverpool, setting up a semi-final at Stamford Bridge. Fran Kirby said it would be great to play with former teammates and that the best team should win. Manchester City were crowned champions and have scored 58 goals, with 19 attributed to Khadija Shaw. Shaw has been the focal point of the attack and is expected to be named WSL player of the season. Lauren Hemp and Kerstin Casparij provide wide attacking threats. City are also dangerous from set pieces, supported by Greenwood’s record 19 WSL set-piece assists. The week included news that Shaw will leave after the season, with Chelsea linked to signing her, while City pursue the double and Chelsea seek to salvage their campaign by adding the FA Cup to the League Cup.
