It was another sign of their desire for continued success, which manager Andree Jeglertz emphasised afterwards. If they are to achieve that, they need Shaw. "First of all, it's amazing that she thinks our programme is the best way to become a better football player and that this is the right place to win titles," said Jeglertz. "We're happy for that and there should be great credit to the people that were involved in making it happen. "We have Bunny Shaw in our team and we play a certain way to get the best out of her, to put her in these [goalscoring] situations. "She's staying and that is what we want to keep doing with her."After firing Man City to title - is Shaw best striker in WSL history...
