It’s a defensive choice. Bellamy wants a pressing front 4.

@sorare.bsky.social I want to say that I hated picking my lineup in a 30-min window last night. Please don’t let rolling locks become a thing.

I think it’s unfair to blame Olivia Clark for the goal last night. It was a good save to tip the shot onto the bar. Just unlucky to hit her on the rebound.
