Boss Gareth Taylor has hailed Chloe Kelly as a driving force for his team as Manchester City prepare for this weekend’s Women’s Super League visit of Tottenham.

Third-placed City host Spurs, live on Sky Sports Football on Sunday evening, off the back of a morale-boosting derby win at Manchester United last weekend.

Kelly assisted Jill Roord for City's opener in a 3-1 win in front of 43,000 fans at Old Trafford, and Taylor admitted in his news conference ahead of their WSL clash with Spurs that the England forward «is in a good place».

«She came in (after leaving Everton in the summer of 2020) and had a good first season with us, hit the ground running and did really well,» Taylor said.

«Obviously, she then suffered a long-term injury with the ACL and then took some time to come back.

»She had a brilliant moment with the Lionesses and scoring that goal (in the final of the Euros), and we knew that season — which was last season — was going to be difficult to get back in.

«I think we saw moments, but I think in terms of being a threat at the top end of the pitch, and the quality that she brings, she's in a good place [but] we're always really pushing her to do more.
