Manchester City's Nick Cushing on Crystal Palace match: ‘As it stands, this is my last game'

Manchester City Women interim head coach Nick Cushing said there have been 'no conversations' about his future in the role beyond this season. Cushing, 40, took charge at City following the sacking of Gareth Taylor in March, five days before his side suffered a 1-0 defeat to Chelsea in the Women's League Cup final. Advertisement City face Crystal Palace in their final match of the 2024-25 Women's Super League (WSL) campaign on Saturday. 'I said after the last game, there has been no conversations about [the managerial role] post this season,' Cushing said at a press conference on Friday. 'As it stands, yes. This is the last game, [but] I've really enjoyed the period. It's been challenging, but it's also been really enjoyable. 'I spent December, January, and February without a team, and one thing I've learnt is I am better in a team. I am really motivated to be successful. 'The coaching and being around the players, planning games that we've had, I've been almost at home in that moment. Post this, who knows? 'There's been no conversation with this team about continuing, but my desire and intention is to be with a team from pre-season.' City are guaranteed to finish fourth in the WSL and will miss out on Champions League football next season, following their 2-2 draw with third-placed Manchester United on Sunday. Under the guidance of Cushing, City were knocked out of the Champions League in the quarter-final with a 3-2 aggregate defeat to Chelsea. They were also defeated 2-0 in the semi-final of the Women's FA Cup by Man United. Cushing has dealt with absences to key squad members during his time in charge, including Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw, who has been sidelined since March 15 when she was substituted against Chelsea with a hamstring issue. The City head coach said the striker would remain out for the last match of the campaign. 'She won't be involved,' Cushing said. 'She's not been with the team, and she's still in that initial stage of rehab with the medical team.'

Leicester City vs Manchester City LIVE: Women's Super League latest score, goals and updates from fixture

The new Women's Super League marks the start of a new era for reigning champions Chelsea, with long-serving boss Emma Hayes having departed in summer to start a new adventure with the USA Women's team. Last year they just about did enough to claim the title on goal difference ahead of Manchester City, while Arsenal will again hope to make it a three-horse race for the WSL title. Meanwhile Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham will hope to progress after further rebuilding this summer. Crystal Palace were promoted to replace Bristol City in the top flight, while on a wider note, the league is now under the management and operation of a new organisation set up to lead women's football towards further growth and progression, with Nikki Doucet overseeing both the WSL and Championship in a new phase for the game.

Manchester City Women sack head coach Gareth Taylor

Manchester City Women have sacked their head coach Gareth Taylor. 'Unfortunately, results this season have so far not reached this high standard,' said the club's managing director, Charlotte O'Neill. 'With six games of the WSL campaign remaining, we believe that a change of management will breathe fresh life into our bid to ensure qualification for the 2025-26 Women's Champions League. 'We would like to place on record our thanks to Gareth for all of his efforts during his many years at City. Our FA Cup and League Cup triumphs will remain special moments in the history of this football club. We wish him all the best for the future.' City are fourth in the Women's Super League but face four consecutive games against Chelsea: first in the League Cup final on Saturday, before two Champions League semi-final legs either side of a WSL meeting.
