Goalkeeper Courtney Brosnan joined West Ham United last summer from Le Havre. Having spent the last nine months with the Irons, the Republic of Ireland international offers an insight into the Hammers squad...
Who is the funniest?
It’s definitely Kate Longhurst, 100 per cent. She’s always dancing before and after training and she gives the rest of the team a lot of banter.
Who is most likely to become a coach?
I could see Gilly Flaherty making the step into coaching. She has got a really tactical brain and she is always organising the team from the back.
Who has the best skills?
It’s definitely Laura Vetterlein. She is always juggling the ball and she is so good. She is always doing some sort of trick or skill. You saw it in her signing video too. She is just unreal.
Who is the longest getting ready after a match?
I think Katharina Baunach is always the last player in the dressing room after training or a game. To be fair, I think she is just hanging out though and chatting.
Who has the strangest pre-match routine?
I’ve not noticed anything too strange. I personally have to put on my gloves in a certain way. I have to put on my left glove first and then my right glove. Then I have to get Martha Thomas to strap them up. It has to be Martha!
Who has the best fashion sense?
It has absolutely got to be Kenza Dali. She has got all the hook-ups with the brands and she has more shoes than I will ever own in my entire life.
Who is the team DJ?
It is usually Gilly, but I also like Anna Moorhouse’s style of music. She normally comes in after training and puts the tunes on, and I’ll give her some credit; the music is pretty good.
Who has a hidden talent?
We are all pretty open, so I don’t know about hidden. Katharina fancies herself as a singer though!
Who is your best friend in the squad?
It’s got to be Martha. She’s my best friend in the squad. We came over here together from France and she’s always there for me.
