Montemurro - Why our pre-Christmas form is vital

Despite a perfect start to the Women’s Super League season, Joe Montemurro’s feet remain firmly placed on the ground.

We’ve won each of our opening five games and scored 27 goals along the way, but with fixtures coming thick and fast after the Christmas break, we can’t afford to rest on our laurels.

“We’ve got a lot of games coming forward with the FA Cup kicking in after Christmas, so we need to make sure that we get all the points we can this side of Christmas,” Montemurro told Arsenal.com.

“We want to take the pressure off for the next half of the season with regards to the amount of games we’re playing, so we have to make sure we’re ready for every game.
