• Team News: No ‘new’ injury concerns except that Maisie Symonds has been unwell this week so may not be available.

• No contract announcements likely to be made today.

• On Villa defeat: Didn’t think we deserved to lose the game, a draw would’ve been a fair result. Disappointed with some aspects of the play during the second half.

• Impressed with commitment and intensity of training for the game against Arsenal.

• Expects Arsenal to have a lot of the ball so we need to be organised out of possession and show that we can compete.

• Really grateful for the travelling support on Saturday, wants the team to put in a good performance for the fans.

• On becoming the HC: Whether it happens or not it’s been an incredible experience and learnt so much from everyone involved.

That concludes the press conference recap. Thank you to Brighton & Hove Albion and the team behind the scenes for letting us be a part of these events moving forward.
