October has seen a continuation of Manchester United's dominance in the WSL. They sit at the top of the table, above Arsenal on goal difference with both Mary Earps and Nikita Parris playing vital roles.
Marc Skinner, who is also up for manager of the month, has led his side to three wins in three throughout October against Brighton, Leicester and Everton, 4-0, 2-0 and 4-0 respectively.
Earps has served as the ‘rock’ of the defence and Skinner has praised her for a ‘laser focus’ and discipline throughout the season. She has kept five clean sheets in total, (three in October) -with United the only team to do so in this 2022/23 campaign.
