She's like a female version of Michael by the way she runs. Great striker pace and just excellent placement with her shots. I'm very excited about her future with England.
Mead should fit easily in with Sampson's 'long ball' style. The only question will be who will she replace? As Sampson had 7 fwds on his WC team; Aluko, Carney, Duggan Kirby, Sanderson, Taylor & White. Sanderson got the least amount of playing time in the WC, but I hope she replaces White instead. White plays a similar style to Mead, but looked a bit sluggish/slow and doesn't have no where near the accuracy as Mead has with her shots. Mead is used to be the lone wolf on her Sunderland team(she's score half their goals while not other fwds has scored for them) so she'll have to acquire some chemistry, but she's only turning 20 in September. Best would be for the NT/Sampson to take her on slowly and play her against the 2nd tear teams in Euro qualifiers, By two years from now(Euro championships) she'll be show the rest of the world what she got!
It's nice to have players like Aluko, but I guess she could replace White. Disappointing because she looked promising going out of the 2011 WC. England will be loaded for the next 2-4 years.
