“It’s one of those goals you really want to watch technically. She hit one against Brighton last year from the edge of the area, but for her to run and strike on her weaker foot, even though I don’t think she has that much of a weaker foot. It’s just beautiful. I want her to watch that back because we want more goals from her.”
Discussing how Hini and Zigi are working together just a few weeks into their first season playing alongside each other, the boss said the team is striving for near telepathic understanding.
“The relationship, we have to get to a point with our midfielders where it becomes instinctive and right now it’s verging on that because they’re playing together, they’re understanding each other’s habits, how they want the ball, how they want to move and how they defend and cover,” Skinner said.
“That is where I want to move that relationship to…where it’s almost instinct and they play off each other, because technically then you can be so much more creative [as a team].”
