Lauren Hemp believes Manchester City will return from the WSL winter break "in a good place" after their recent form.
City's star winger was reflecting on a whirlwind 2022 that saw her claim a fourth PFA Young Player of the Year award and win silverware at international level with England. The forward spent much of November recovering from injury but managed to win her race against time to be fit for the Manchester derby, where City earned a point after a 1-1 draw.
They had a tough start to the season with back-to-back WSL defeats away at Aston Villa and Chelsea, but are unbeaten in ten games since. City will return to domestic action on January 15 with a trip to West Ham. And as the WSL now breaks for Christmas and the New Year, Hemp is looking to push on again in 2023 and believes she can take her game to a new level.
