The mutual adoration between the pair, who also played together for Verona back in their homeland, is palpable, and it’s easy to see why both have cemented themselves as firm fan favourites on Merseyside. “It's totally different for me,” she says, reflecting on her first season with the Blues. “The first month I had to adapt here because it was a big change but I've been working hard and now I feel a lot better.
“I love when we have the ball because I can decide when I want to pass and when I want to accelerate the game. Of course, if you don't have so much possession then you just have to defend and you can't control the game. Our first thought is to control the game and I think we're getting better at that. It's just the final part we need to keep working on.”
“It's incredible that we can be here in the WSL,” Piemonte adds. “Yaya was the first and as an Italian it's difficult to play outside of Italy because the levels are so high.
