NewsLeanne Kiernan fitness update

The striker is due to remain sidelined with the issue that forced her to sit out last weekend's 2-2 draw with Tottenham Hotspur.

Interim head coach Amber Whiteley offered an update on the condition of the Republic of Ireland international during her press conference to preview the Barclays Women's Super League encounter against Everton.

She said: "Leanne is still a little bit away from where we thought she would be at this stage. So, [it is] unlikely, I think, that we'll have Leanne on Sunday."
