Who has the best stories about life or football?

I’ll probably go with Hannah George because she’s one of the more mature ones in the squad. She’s got more experience than all of us.

Who’s the calmest in the group?

I feel like it’s Liv Rabjohn. She’s really calm all the time.

Who’s the loudest in the dressing room?

I’d say Lavarna Johnson is the loudest. You hear her laugh before you can see her. You know it’s her and she’s the loudest.

This could easily be a photo of her reaction to receiving this accolade, but Lavarna Johnson is the loudest in the dressing room, according to Monique

Who has the best fashion taste in the squad?

I’d probably say Marli Rhodes. She has a lot of clothes and she loves her outfits – she puts a lot of thought into it.

If you had to call one member of your squad, and your life depends on whether they answer – who would you call?

I’d say Taylor Reynolds. She’s always the first to reply in the group chat.

Who’s most likely to be a politician?

I’d go with Izzy Green. She gives me politician or teacher vibes.

Who’s the best trainer in the squad?

I’d probably go with Kate Evans. She always puts in 100%, whether she’s in the starting XI or not – she always tries really hard.

Who would you trust to score a penalty in a pressurised situation?

I’d say Phoebe Warner, after the Leeds game. After everything that went on in the game, for her to step up and score so calmly – is amazing.

Who’s the biggest football lover in the squad?

I’m going with Lavarna Johnson for this. She’s a big Man United fan, and she goes to the West Brom games too.

Who gets the most fines?

Taylor Reynolds gets fined for everything. She always finds a way to get a fine. She even had the fines list through and got another fine whilst it was being handed out.

Who has the worst taste in music?

I’ll say Mia Sorrentino. She likes house and drum and bass, it’s just not for me. I prefer R&B; it’s a bit more chill.

Who’s the coolest in the squad?

I’ll say Phoebe Warner. She’s very cool and tells everyone we’re best friends.

Who’s the most generous with their money?

I think Lavarna Johnson, she’s always paying for stuff.
