PRESS CONFERENCE | Hear the latest from Marc Skinner ahead of United Women's huge League Cup tie at Arsenal...
In our pre-match press conference, Skinner was asked to provide team news and an update on Elisabeth Terland after the Norway international picked up a knock last time out.
“The early indications are that she will be okay,” said Marc. “She did take a knock, I think the keeper hit through her leg, I think it was almost like a dead leg but it's got a little bit easier.
“So, Frido [Rolfo] still won't be available, maybe she might be back at the weekend but hopefully she will be back at the latest next weekend.

“Leah [Galton] is out, again we're working back with her, [Ella] Tooney is obviously a little bit longer term and Gabby [George], hopefully in the next couple of weeks we can see her back on the field so that will be good. Apart from that, I think everybody is available and ready to go.
“We will find out this morning so hopefully they are all available. I have not heard anything to the contrary right now.”
