Ahead of Manchester City’s 8-1 pummelling of Bristol City at the weekend, where Khadija Shaw increased her overall goal tally by four, Filippa Angeldahl, Julie Blakstad and Jemima Dahou also got on the scoresheet in the Vitality Women’s FA Cup fifth round, manager Gareth Taylor opened up about the leadership inside the Manchester City dressing room.
While Steph Houghton, Alex Greenwood and Esme Morgan have shared the captain’s armband this campaign, City’s approach to leadership is somewhat unique.
Taylor said: “Rather than it being just one person because I think that's always what it used to be, I think the game has changed a little bit. Now, it's really spread out in terms of the leadership and we're expecting everyone to bring their own identity to what we do.
