Interview with Georgia Collier

Hi Georgia, welcome to Villa! What have you enjoyed so far in your time here?

I’ve enjoyed getting to know the other girls, playing competitive football and winning!

Can you tell us about your playing journey so far?

I grew up playing football all day every day, when I went to university, it was Covid so I had a break for a couple of years. When I came back home, I felt more excited to get back playing again.

What professional teams and players inspire you? Including in the women’s game?

I enjoy watching the Arsenal women ’ s team, I think they work very well as a team and have a very good dynamic to their football One player in particular would be Leah Williamson, I think her determination after constant set backs is very inspiring

What do you think the team can achieve this season?

I think we can get through the next round of the FA cup and finish in the top half of the league

If you were an animal, what would you be?

I would probably be a tiger for its fierceness!!

What made you want to join Villa?

I wanted to join Villa as I had always heard good things about them from other players, also when I played against Villa last year, the players were all very positive This is something I think is very important when playing football, having supporting teammates who don’t point the finger when things don’t always go to plan
