Crystal Palace Manager Laura Kaminski Addresses Everton Match, Team Consistency, and Aimee Everett’s Recovery

Crystal Palace manager Laura Kaminski addressed the media in advance of Sunday’s Women’s Super League fixture against Everton, which is set for a 14:00 GMT kick-off. The main points from her press conference are as follows: Regarding Captain Aimee Everett, Kaminski stated that her recovery from injury has progressed, placing her “in a much better place,” though she will undergo assessment after training this week. Kaminski added, “I’m still not 100% certain on the outcome for the weekend but she’s in a really positive place and is on the grass.” Kaminski indicated that Palace understands “how important it is to take full advantage” of their home fixtures, given that all their points this season have been secured away from home. She noted that despite “a lot of noise” concerning Everton’s position at the bottom of the league table, she sympathizes with their situation due to long-term injuries. Kaminski stated, “It’s important to remember it’s people we’re talking about here. I wish those players all the best. It’s really difficult to deal with. We are sure of what we’ll get from them. We will get a really gritty, whole-hearted performance from a team that will rally together and try to be their best on the day.” Kaminski also stated that Palace is “adjusting and adapting” weekly to different opponents, and she desires her players to cultivate consistency. Furthermore, Kaminski believes Everton’s league position does not accurately reflect their performances and emphasized that it will “not reflect their mentality” on Sunday.
