City trio reveal what's on their Christmas wishlist | OneFootball

Laura Coombs, Naomi Layzell and Sandy MacIver share what they're hoping to unwrap this Christmas...

Gareth Taylor's side signed off for the Christmas break last week with a Champions League defeat to reigning European champions Barcelona.

Like Pep Guardiola's side, our women's team have been hit by injuries in recent weeks but have still managed to secure qualification for the Champions League knockout stages, winning 14 of our 18 matches in all competitions.

Our next competitive fixture sees us welcome Ipswich Town to the Joie Stadium on Sunday 12 January, with the players also embarking on a warm weather training camp in Abu Dhabi in the new year.

Before then, though, the squad have a well-earned opportunity to rest up and celebrate the festive period.

But what's top of their wishlist over Christmas? Laura Coombs, Naomi Layzell and Sandy MacIver tell us theirs below...

Laura Coombs

“I did actually compose a little list this year! Not too much, but I did ask for some skin care stuff – I’m big into the skin care.

“And a few books as well. I like autobiographies, especially sportspeople or business people.”

Naomi Layzell

“I think just going and spending time with my family and reconnecting with my friends. There will be a lot of boardgames played!

“Just being able to see how they’re doing and catch up [will be nice]. Because everyone’s lives are so busy, so to be able to slow down and support each other and reconnect in these times is hugely important.”

Sandy MacIver

“Interestingly enough I went for lunch with my sister last week and she asked me the same question.

“I said a water flosser. I’ve seen them on TikTok and I thought ‘wow’, I just think they’re really good so I’ve asked for a water flosser.

“I’ve also asked for a humidifier. You put little scents in and I want that for my bedroom to make it smell nice.”
