Love to see the girls so happy off the pitch. Surely a happy squad makes for a successful one? The happier they all are, the better they will do this summer *fingers crossed* with that support all around them. Love to see the aussies have adopted americans, scots and irish into the team! Anyone else just not see Sam leaving chelsea, Mac leaving london etc whilst they are all so settled there? Sam will re-sign, mac will stay I think.
I think Sam will re-sign for at least a year, maybe with the option to extend, just for rehab purposes and to see how things go post-Emma. That way if she doesn't like Bompastor's system or something like that, she's not locked in for another 3+ years.
Macca I think will ultimately re-sign with West Ham, again, maybe for just a year with the option to extend. Kirsty's contract is also up but she has a +1 in her contract as well. I know West Ham is usually in a relegation battle but it could be different if they bring in some new players, have Dagny Brynjarsdottir back (they sorely missed her this season), Mini back healthy, etc. Macca seems happy there and does seem to be thriving in her captaincy role. And as everyone says, she needs to be in a team where she is the undisputed #1, and she's not going to get that in any other team save for somewhere like Villa (if Van Domselaar leaves and with her injury it's doubtful if she will or not) or maybe Everton if Brosnan leaves (she's better than Ramsey, their backup, and better than Brosnan too, she was beating her out at West Ham when they played together).
