You can tweak and look, you've been around a long time, you know now what works for yourself and what doesn't, but I do agree with you, being able to read the game absolutely helps, or your communication with other players around you and stuff like that always helps.

Yeah, he's been great.

Look, obviously, you know, we would have played against Sean last year at Treaty, probably some of the very toughest games, to be honest, and always really impressed with their style as well as his information onto those players and stuff.

And look, women's football is very small and now a lot of people around the game that have played under him are not new of him and always spoke very highly of him.

And we've seen a first hand now the last few weeks working with him, brings his own style, his own approach.

I've learned a lot off him already as well, which is great.

He's a great way around the group.

how he deals with the girls and look we'll be a different type of team this year I think when a new manager comes in he'll set his own style his own approach and we've really enjoyed it the last few weeks still early days still have a lot of you know weeks to go now pre-season that we'll continue to learn from him but you know he's been brilliant so far he's already there with him from last year good coach and group behind them as well but in terms of himself he's been brilliant I've learned a lot off him already and now we're really excited I'm supposed to be led by him going into the season

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

That's...

I was at Shell's fans forum with him last night and someone asked him that, you know, there was a lot of pressure, we didn't win at him last year and that's why he's here.

You know, you want to be at clubs like this where you're expected to win things and, you know, he wants to be at the club, he likes that expectation.

What manager wouldn't?

What player wouldn't?

You want to be competing for everything.

You know, that's why you're involved in the game so, you know, that won't bother him, you know, that'll probably bring him

along even more, he'll bring us and lead us along even more because he knows those expectations.

I've always said when we play at Shell it's an expectation to win things but it's also in our dressing room, it's within us, we have that belief in us as players that every year we want to compete for everything and he'll want that as a coach, that's what you want as a manager isn't it?

Every week, every year to know that you're going to be competing for everything so as I said he'll bring his own style and I've been really impressed so far so

Hopefully it can take us where we want to be.
