RIGHT-BACK ROLE! REECE SAYS: “Definitely the position has changed! Maybe before it was more of a defender but now it’s adapted and you have the license to go forward, attack and defend. I played as a right-sided centre-back many times coming through in the academy. As right-side of a three, you’re more limited to where you can go and what you can do!” CHILDHOOD IDOLS! REECE SAYS: “When I was young I wasn’t a right-back, I was a striker! I looked up to Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole. I looked up to the boys that played for the team that I supported! Me and Ashley Cole speak nearly every week. He’s probably one of the best left-backs to play the game. Even though he was a left-back, the position is…

THE DJ! EMMA SAYS: “Grace Moloney is our club DJ! She makes sure she is on the aux and to be honest everyone enjoys her music! It’s a real mix of artists and genres, but I think that’s the reason why everyone likes it!” MS SUPERSTITIOUS! EMMA SAYS: “I don’t know if any of the players have any superstitions, but I always make sure that I wear the shin pads with my family on!” BEST TRAINER! EMMA SAYS: “I’d say the best trainer would be Amalie Eikeland. She always does extra training and she’s a true professional on and off the pitch. She’s unbelievably strong in the gym too!” THE BRAINBOX! EMMA SAYS: “I would say ex-team-mate Jess Fishlock has large amounts of knowledge and life experiences that have helped…

ERLING HAALAND B. DORTMUND Last season’s Champions League top goalscorer is steamrolling his way up the CL goal charts! Averaging at least one goal a game, the 21-year-old is on a one-way road to stardom.

LIONEL MESSI PSG Messi’s 123 European goals for Barca is a UEFA club competition single-club record!

The stripped back away jerseys received loads of criticism at the time, but that didn’t stop the mega brand from pressing ahead with their mind-boggling new crest-less club kits! CELEBRATION CONFUSION! There’s already been some confusion from players, as well! After scoring for Fenerbahce in the Europa League last month, home grown hero Muhammed Gumuskaya went to kiss the badge on his shirt, but couldn’t…
