“Given that football wasn’t professional up until recently for us, we didn’t do a lot of testing on where we sat,” she said.
“Doing all the fitness testing and looking at the GPS stats, I am actually still sitting well within the group.
“I was surprised by that and having the extra professionalism, recovery and physios and all that, I actually feel better physically because you’re getting better maintenance than I did in previous years.
