That's all for today đź‘‹

Thank you for joining me this afternoon!

Another three points on the road sees us go nine clear at the league summit after a really gutsy performance in Bromley.

All eyes now move to the hotly anticipated game against Chelsea on Sunday at the Etihad Stadium, with kick-off set for 14:30 (UK).

We look forward to enjoying your company once again!

Jeglertz on looking forward to Chelsea next week

That would be a fantastic game to play at home against Chelsea next Sunday. 

That will be exciting.

Jeglertz on the mood and feeling of the team

I think it’s more of a relief because the expectation is on us we’re leading 1-0, we’re letting one goal in, it becomes a little bit of a hectic game after that, but at the same time the players afterwards are tired, exhausted, but at the same time also we managed. 

So relief is probably the feeling from many of them.

Jeglertz on finding a way through

That’s how it is in this league that if you are not on top or we miss some easy passes, we were not timed in the press, the team was a little bit too long, then teams will challenge us and that’s why it’s a fascinating league.

All teams are good and London City are definitely a team to count on for the future and that makes the win even bigger because that means that no matter what we are the ones that are here after the game that can say we’re winning 2-1.

Jeglertz on going nine points clear

Yeah, it means so much of course for the league table and the points there, that’s one thing, but also the mentality of the group. 

There was no hesitation from the group that we should get this win and the mentality in the group is that finding ways to explore their penalty box and getting the balls in there and creating scoring chances no matter if it’s a good team we’re playing against they are challenging us a lot, but at the same time having that mentality is fantastic.

Sam Coffey reaction 🗣️

“It was a bit of a stressful game to come into. 

"I’ve been waiting to make my debut and have spent the last few weeks just trying to settle and get my fitness back coming from an off-season, so happy to help contribute to the team, however I possibly can. 

"Obviously a chaotic one, but the biggest thing is that we’re leaving with three points and that’s all that matters to me, so I’m just really happy and honoured."
