, It is understanding my body, knowing when I need to take an extra day recovery, knowing when I need to do more recovery; like now I do recovery every day.
People tweet me saying they have just seen me in town. It's great. But I just want to get on with the football. Just enjoy it - that's all I want to do.
Women's football has such a platform now. It can only go from strength to strength. I just hope it encourages girls who might not have taken up the game to do it now.
