Ellen White has 50 goals for England and will doubtless add more at the Euros. What a player and what a thoroughly nice woman. JohnnyTheNic
Ellen Toni White is a 5’7″ young-looking 33-year-old striker for Manchester City and England. She stands on the verge of being England’s greatest goalscorer of all time having netted 50 goals for England heading into this summer’s Euros, which kick off on Wednesday.
In 2013 she left for Notts County on a three-year contract but knacked her ACL and was out of the whole season. Despite scoring 11 in 33 games, it wasn’t a successful period in her career and she moved to Birmingham City, where she scored 23 times in 28 games; 15 in 14 games in 2017/18 was her best season to date.
She knows when to just stop in the box, wait and make herself some space by doing so. I love that and she has that striker’s instinct for knowing where the goal is. On top of that, she’s just a fantastic finisher. Fran Kirby, her England teammate, says, “She has so much composure when she goes one v one with a goalkeeper.”
She does the ‘goggles’ goal celebration which, when Jonjo Shelvey does it, looks kind of dumb, but when she does it seems somehow joyous. Then again, hers is copied from her hero Anthony Modeste and intended as a tribute to the Cologne striker whereas Shelvey’s is a pish take of his brother because he wears…err…glasses.
