Manchester City Women have made a home for themselves at the Joie Stadium but are moving to a new training facility
As well as building a training ground from scratch in 2014, Manchester City also decided to launch a women's team.
"There's a huge crossover. For me, even just me moving to the women's team I've been in that building with them for eight years so I had a feel for the programme, how it worked," O'Neill tells the Manchester Evening News. "I knew lots of people already so there was definitely that bit and we had staff move between the different teams from boys and men's academy and first teams.
"I don't know many places in Europe where you can live in an amazing city with a really short commute to train and play that is the same place as the men's team and academy. It is a huge advantage for us." "What it gives us is a chance to tailor everything we do in the Joie Stadium to our female-first fans, which might be things that you can't necessarily do in other stadiums when you have different users - things like buggy parks and breastfeeding spaces. When we're talking to new signing, we shout about this.
