Gabby George: Man United Women veteran sends message to fans Manchester United Women fell to a 1-0 defeat to Chelsea Women in the last match of the season. The Red Devils pushed hard for an equaliser, but it never came as they had to come to terms with yet another defeat to the Blues. Gabby George spoke to the club’s media after the match and felt her side did all they could to get the equaliser that never came.
Gabby George Reflecting on her side’s effort, she explained, “I think we pushed all the way to the end. We had some good chances in the game and we just couldn’t get it over the line today but we are going to work on that, reflect and come back next season and hopefully take it to another level. ” Asked about the formation change in the middle of the match and the loss of two fullbacks to injury, George admitted that it was tough to deal with.
She explained, “I think we just needed to go for it and try get something from the game and change something so went to a three for a little bit. Yeah, it was difficult losing Anna (Sandberg) and Jayde (Riviere), we know how big a part they play in the way that we play but we have different people who can come in and do a job. Frido (Rolfo) came in and did a great job and Hanna’s (Lundkvist) been great since she came in so yeah, we have a great squad, it is just about building from now.
” Centre back role George was then asked what it was like to play in a more central role as she played 90 minutes in the centre of the defence. She explained, “yeah, I have got 10 years’ experience playing centre back so I am more comfortable playing there. I can play left back too.
