Training: Build-up to Bristol

Nick Cushing's squad started the new year with a strength session in the gym!

The Blues return to FA Women’s Super League action on Sunday 6 January with a trip down to Bristol.

City ended the year on a high - level on points with Arsenal at the top of the WSL table. Now, Cushing’s side aim to push on in the second half of the season.

As usual our photographer, Tom Flathers, was at the session to capture all the best moments!
