Each month I will conduct a Twitter poll to let people vote on the Player of the Month. I will pretend to consider input from this poll then award the honor precisely to who I think deserves it.

It's hard to come up with a player of the month when the team goes 0-3-1, but I said I would pick one every month so I guess that means I have to do it. Well it doesn't mean I have to choose, so this month I am deferring to the Twitter poll and picking Ebony Salmon. Her goal was the only goal scored for the month and earned the sole point in July, so maybe it doesn't need to be any more complicated than that.

Other players of note were Gemma Bonner who helped bring more defensive stability, CeCe Kizer who was dangerous in her new wing role, Freja Olofsson who led the midfield in passing accuracy and Nadia Nadim who brought new life into the attack.

July didn't turn out the way that any Racing fan wanted, but there were clear signs of progress. Let's hope that progress turns into more points in August and difficult choice for Player of the Month due to overall better play.
