Ella Toone praises Jess Park and Julia Zigiotti Olme
Speaking of relationships, Ella is enjoying her official role as vice-captain and feels her leadership skills are developing with experience. But the opportunity to wear the armband has not arrived due to Maya Le Tissier’s incredible consistency!
“Correct, I’ve never worn it! [Laughs]
“I don’t think it’s changed things for me [being vice-captain]. I’ve been at United since I was a young girl and now I have so much experience in football – playing for my club, playing in FA Cup finals, playing for England, playing at the Euros, playing at the World Cup… I feel like I’ve grown over time.
“I haven’t changed in the sense that I’ve tried to give absolutely my best in every game I play, and to lead by example in that way, but also to speak up when I need to speak up, and to encourage people.
“I’ve just developed that more over time and nothing has changed there, being in the vice-captain role. It’s a role I embrace and I hope that I do a good job.”
