Skipper Victoria Williams believes Albion can right a few wrongs when they visit Leicester City in the WSL on Sunday.
Williams says the squad didn’t dwell too long on last Sunday’s crazy 6-0 defeat to Manchester City when they conceded four goals in seven minutes at the start of the second period after a goalless first half.
“I have played in this league for a long time and I can’t remember too many games like it,” she said. “At half-time we were very much in it. I thought the way we tried to go forward and the intensity we showed in the first half against a very strong side was really good.
“We’ve reviewed what happened in the second half but you have to move on pretty quickly. I think as a squad that’s something we’re good at. The Man City game has gone now, just look forward and do your best in the next game.”

Albion have lost five matches without scoring a goal since narrowly defeating Leicester City 1-0 at the Amex in November, when Maisie Symonds came off the bench to score a stoppage-time winner.
“They made it very hard for us that day,” said Williams. “They got a lot of players behind the ball and it needed a special goal from Maisie to win it for us.
“I imagine on Sunday, with them being bottom of the table again, that they will come at us a bit more. That should suit us. We’re looking forward to the game, what you want most after a bad result is the opportunity to put things right and the good thing about last week is that we did a lot of good things so we have a lot to build on than maybe you would normally have when you lose 6-0.”
