McCabe – Why I’m so demanding of young players

Melisa Filis and Ruby Grant both impressed as we swept past London Bees in the FA Women’s Continental League Cup on Wednesday night.

Filis netted a hat-trick in her first goals for the club, and while Katie McCabe also claimed a match ball, she explained how demanding she is with her younger team-mates.

“I give them a lot of stick in training but I like demanding high standards from them,” McCabe told Arsenal.com.

“It’s a big deal to play for this club so we need to be demanding the best from each other which we do week in, week out in training and on the pitch on a Sunday.

“They’ve been working their socks off and you’ve seen it tonight, Mel tucked a couple of goals away which is great and you can se they’re really progressing. They’re doing really well.”
