On a more positive note, Crossways welcomes the London City Lionesses to the WSL and has high hopes for Manchester United.

‘Crossways’ is back after Arsenal’s loss to Liverpool, which saw them knocked out of the FA Cup at the quarterfinal stage. Hosts Ian Wright and Steph Houghton agree that the side lacked energy and the players need to show more pride in their personal performances. But they keep the faith with Renée Slegers. Steph lauds Nick Cushing as the best manager she ever had as he returns to hopefully bring silverware to Man City, keep the club’s best players, and allow them to play free. Taylor Hinds is on their minds, too, following the abuse she received during Liverpool’s win over Arsenal. And they’re back with predictions for the games ahead. Steph is in the lead with 50 points … can Wrighty claw it back?
