Manchester United is effectively implementing Eva Olid's high-press, high-risk game plan, with key players driving their success. The midfield duo of Hinata Miyazawa and Julia Zigiotti are crucial, with Zigiotti leading the team with two goals this season. Semi Awujo also contributes significantly, providing an added height factor when needed. Goalkeeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce has been a standout, averaging 4.8 saves per match and stopping 72.7% of shots faced, ranking joint-third in the division.

Full-backs Sandberg and Hanna Lundkvist are vital in advancing the ball, setting up the front three of Medina, Park, and Terland. Terland has scored 37 goals since joining Brighton in 2022 and 29 in 66 appearances for Manchester United in the BWSL. Park contributed six goals and five assists in the BWSL last season and has five goals for the Lionesses. Medina, despite fewer goals at Atlético Madrid in Liga F, has shown her quality with a brilliant strike against West Ham.
