Pearl Slattery

say Jess Sue would have picked up little niggles and knocks because that's just a little step up in terms of the fitness and as I said when I was speaking to Larko she was saying you know they've really pushed her in terms of that fitness and she was explaining some of the runs she did and I think if you're an Irish young player and you go over there and you can get through that you know without picking up an injury really find your feet find your form I think she's eight goals at Palace this season which is brilliant at that level and as I said as a country we're delighted I'm delighted for her that we're reaping the benefits now of it you know and

I can't believe she's 20.

She seems like she's around for so long and she's another, what, 10, 12 plus years.

So she'll only get better and better as well.

I mean it's such a big game though like the amount of times that fall for people outside the box and you know you'll see it going over the bar or they won't connect with it right and look we all know the quality Katie has and that left foot but as I said captain of our country you know playing at Arsenal to do it in such a big game tonight for our country is you know is why she's the player she is and we're very thankful that we have her.

Oh, I don't want to make a few mad guesses here.

Then people saying, oh, Pearl said this or that.

I don't know.

There's a few rumours, isn't there?

A lot of people saying, will she go over to the American League?

I don't know.

Would you make that move?

I haven't bought, you know, I know she just bought in London.

Then you look at Denise, she just bought in Carolina and now she's moved to Liverpool.

So I'd be intrigued to see where Katie's mentality is at.

Does she want to stay in London?

Does she want to stay in England?

you know, do you go to Spain?

I don't know.

I'm not going to throw any.
