Manchester City have won the Women's Super League title for the 2025-26 season, with Alex Greenwood securing the first league championship of her career and Khadija Shaw standing out as the league's top performer. The team, managed by Andrée Jeglertz, delivered a consistent campaign built on defensive solidity and attacking flair.
Goalkeeper Ayaka Yamashita earned a rating of 7 for her solid season, keeping seven clean sheets and showcasing strong distribution. Khiara Keating, with four appearances, received a 6, facing a decision on her future. Right-back Kerstin Casparij, one of two ever-presents in the league, was rated 9 for her attacking contributions and reliability.
Captain Alex Greenwood, rated 8.5, led with calm authority, while defender Rebecca Knaak (7.5) proved dependable, scoring a crucial late goal against Liverpool. Jade Rose (7.5) adapted quickly after joining, and Leila Ouahabi (6.5) offered attacking threat but defensive concerns may prompt a summer upgrade. Gracie Prior (6.5) and Naomi Layzell (5.5) contributed when fit.
In midfield, Yui Hasegawa (9) impressed with technical ability and attacking runs, while Laura Blindkilde Brown (8) was an unsung hero before January signing Sam Coffey (7) added experience. Laura Coombs (6.5) retired with a winner's medal, and Grace Clinton (6) struggled with injury after a promising start. Sydney Lohmann arrived late but did not feature enough for a rating.
