(Admins: Does this post belong here or "General Football"? Sorry if I got it wrong.)

Rumours have been going around since Lianne Sanderson left the Gunners and went back to the US. A trade has finally been hammered out, and she's joining the Portland Thorns.

This took longer to come about than I expected it would and she hasn't gone where I thought she was off to. I figured that when she left Arsenal she already had her move sorted since that is usually what happens when somebody transfers mid-season. Maybe she left and then sorted it, or maybe this is just another example of the NWSL's many quirks. Either way it can't be bad for England that both she and Taylor are at the same club. For now.

Portland has left Sanderson unprotected for the expansion draft. She might be joining Alex Morgan in Orlando.

It sounds like this move is one of the expected outcomes. I can't claim to know how she got on at Portland though.
