I'm going to pretend that I also potentially broke it doing Rayleigh Paley practising for this, but it was a lot less cool than that.
But yeah, thank you for being my ambulance.
It's very much appreciated.
Anyone else like to jump in?
I was going to say, I think Tom hit the nail on the head there with the versatility.
Like that's what you're getting with a player like Katie McCabe.
And that's exactly why they've offered us such a long deal.
And I think, especially when you're 30, there's a sort of idea that you potentially come into the end of your career.
And you are in a way, but you look at sort of like Kim Little.
And I think a three-year deal with an option of an extra is a really, it's such a big thing at 30 years old.
But I think that shows exactly what Katie still got left and what Chelsea see in her.
So,
Yes, it's a move that's not going to go down well with fans, but I think she is still an incredible player regardless of anything.
And do you know what?
I think it's one of those things like that hair pull was controversial.
It was bad, but that's the passion that she gives the team.
And I think if you're looking to really kick on
like Chelsea are in the Champions League, someone that's willing to sort of go the extra mile for a club, maybe not always get it so right.
You look at Aaron Cuthbert, it's a very similar player who will always put everything on the line.
Those are the sort of players you want in your team.
