Payne acknowledged Arsenal’s quality but remains confident in Everton’s growing momentum.
“I’m happy. I’m looking forward to playing against Arsenal on Friday. They’re a great team with incredible players, but I think we’re gaining confidence, especially after our performance against Chelsea.
I think we can only move forward, and hopefully we’ll be ready for it and get something out of it.”
Payne’s recent performances have been a key factor in Everton’s resurgence, with the Nigerian midfielder playing a vital role in their midfield setup.
Her positive outlook reflects the team’s determination to continue their upward trajectory in the league.
With Everton aiming to climb the table, the clash against Arsenal presents an opportunity to further demonstrate their progress and claim a significant result.
