PEN PICTURE

An all round athlete, Danielle has developed into a sound defender for Tottenham.  She is hard in the tackle and enjoys getting forward to support the attackers whenever she can, but is always working back and forth to help out the other members of the side.  Good in the air and in possession, Dani works as hard in training as she does on the pitch, with a good attitude to the game in general.
