I try to scan and see who is where, and position myself ideally!” JOINING WEST HAM! KINGA SAYS: “I’m excited to see how much I can progress as a player, being faced with a different style of play. I can already tell that it’s much more physical, even the training!” GOALIE MENTALITY! KINGA SAYS: “Sometimes it’s difficult for goalkeepers as you might not touch the ball for ten minutes. It’s a little easier for the onfield players, as they can make a mistake and a minute later, or less, they can do something positive, so self-talk is very important for us!” SCHOOL YEARS!…
