About her role for United and England:

She's mint. Hope Russo stays too.
Tooney did great on soccer AM. I can see her as a pundit when she gets older.
I strongly recommend watching the whole video behind the link. Love it how our beloved club acknowledges the important people behind the scenes.

Met Ella today - she was great. Chatted about the Cup Final and the League - said she's confident for both!
Are you guys genuinely interested in women's football?
Why would we not be?
I support two teams in the football world. Hammarby in sweden and Manchester United. I watch and support the women and mens team of each club equally and enjoy both teams games just as much.
Are you asking the same question to the 60 000+ people who watched Arsenal-Wolfsburg in womens CL last week? Or the 100 000 that watched englands last game?
Or the people going to the sold FA cup final between Chelsea and United?
I have two girls and they are really excited for Utd and more the women than the mens team. I watch a lot of games with them and many of them have been quite good fun so I am going with yeah on this one.
I am. My main complaint is that games aren't televised or I would watch much more. I got MUTV just for this but they stopped showing live games as well so I'm having to try FA Player if I need to catch a game.
What do you mean? Are you genuinely interested in men's football?
I’m interested in football. Whichever gender it is played by.

Have you watched the United team? Very entertaining attacking football.
Almost always goals galore, and very well worked goals at that.
yes, we’re top of the WSL and in a cup final on Sunday (at a sold out Wembley at that!) as a United fan I want everything Manchester United to be the best!
They show a lot of their games on BBC.

Incredibly under rated player is Toone,
Maybe finally getting the recognition she deserves.

Last week The Guardian published itts top 100 women players in the world, rated by a multitude of international journalists, pundits, coaches, former players etc.
From United only Toone, Earps and Miyazawa made the list (Toone at 66th).Unsurprisingly, Barcelona had 8 in the top 11.
Stunning goal from Toone against Newcastle.
@Annihilate Now! Thank you. We are eternally grateful for your services to our women's team.
It's terrific recognition for Ella. Her form since the Euros has been a bit erratic, especially in front of goal but she's still been turning in consistently good performances and scoring some memorable goals.
For regular watchers of women's football it's a bit of a surprising team though:
Not much representation from Spain or from Barca. Lots of WSL players and even more lionesses. Plus it's hard not to see Morgan's inclusion as a kind of long service award.
Incidentally there are a lot of United links in there - currently, Earps and Toone and historically Greenwood, James and Russo. For a young team we've had some top players.

Nice job teaching her how to spell ‘strength’
Tut tut ... One out of two ain't bad
Well deserved, even though it comes a bit late.
Hopefully Ella will get 100. Team legend already IMO. At 24. Really good performance yesterday and her game awareness is underrated outside LSV.
Not sure how I feel about this ?!
A short article on the BBC about the Russo/Toone podcasts.

My favourite bit - her talking about the increased press coverage after the Euros and them publishing photos of her eating a pasty: "Honestly, leave a woman in peace to enjoy her pasty," she says.

I thought Ella was overcooked and frustrating to watch for all of the first half. It was as if our attacks came to die at her doorstep. Then she scores what must be one of top 3 of Wembley Cup final goals ever. Fantastic!
What a player and an incredible goal. Must have been a tremendous afternoon for her yesterday.
