Liverpool's FA Cup win against London Bees has given the team a much-needed spark, with new signings helping to shift the mood around the club. The 6-0 victory at the National League Division One South East side marked Liverpool's first win since November and offers a glimmer of hope for their Women's Super League campaign.
The Reds had gone 12 games without a win and sat bottom of the table with just four points, but the arrival of new signings has given them a much-needed boost. Midfielder Denise O'Sullivan scored twice on her debut, while striker Martha Thomas also announced herself in style with a headed goal. Meanwhile, young midfielder Maizie Trueman became the youngest player to start for Liverpool and scored her first goal.
While the FA Cup victory was a welcome result, manager Gareth Taylor knows that the real test lies in the WSL. The team remains under relegation threat but with new signings firing, young academy talent shining, and a cup win that will inject confidence into the squad, they might have the springboard to mount a genuine survival push.
Liverpool's January signings are capable of shifting the mood around the club, with the pedigree of their new arrivals on display against London Bees. The team now faces a crucial second half of the season, with West Ham only one point above them and Everton and Leicester at four and five points better off.
The Reds will next welcome in-form Tottenham on 25 January before a trip to Manchester United on 1 February. With these upcoming fixtures, Taylor's side will need to continue their momentum if they are to mount a successful survival bid.

It's like a weight has been lifted off their shoulders and I'm so hyped for them! 
Denise O'Sullivan is a total rockstar on the pitch - her goals are straight fire 
Maizie Trueman starting at just 17? Mind. Blown. 
Young talent is what's gonna get us out of this relegation spot, trust me! 
And now they gotta keep that momentum going for those crucial WSL games... West Ham's in the way though, let's see how our Reds handle it 
! Denise O'Sullivan is like the real MVP right now, scoring twice on her debut - girl's got skills 
. And Maizie Trueman, what's with all the young talent coming through? It's like they're trying to make up for the whole "they're not as good as their men's team" thing 
.
. Those upcoming games against West Ham and Tottenham are gonna be huge, so fingers crossed for The Reds! 
They might just be able to pull off a successful survival bid after all 
.
They've finally got some fresh faces and it shows! Denise O'Sullivan is like a revelation - she came in on a whim but smashed it out there 
Now, let's see if they can keep it up... those next games against Tottenham and Manchester United are gonna be crucial 
. Can't wait to see how it all plays out! 
And Maizie Trueman, wow, what a talent

Manager Gareth Taylor is gonna have his work cut out for him, though. They're still under relegation threat, but with this momentum, they might just be able to pull it off. Fingers crossed for the Reds! 
! The FA Cup win is just what they needed to shake things up and get those ladies fired up 
. But that cup win against London Bees will definitely give them some confidence and a much-needed boost 
. West Ham's got to be worried right about now 
so many young faces now but still only four points at the top of wsl is that enough to get by with the next few teams above them like west ham, everton and leicester?

.
Liverpool's win against London Bees is def not just about beating a lower division team, it's like they finally found their mojo after a dry spell 
. I mean, congratulations to the ladies on the cup win and all that, but we'll see how long it takes for reality to kick back in. They're still sitting at the bottom of the table, after all... 
. And with the way things are going, I'm not holding my breath on their WSL campaign. Let's see if they can keep up the momentum or if it was just a fluke win 
. Denise O'Sullivan and Martha Thomas are total game-changers, and Maizie Trueman is an amazing young talent 
. The fact that they won the FA Cup means so much to the team and the fans - it's like a fresh start for everyone 
. West Ham is just one point above them, and those other teams are looking pretty strong too 
.
. Whatever it is, I'm not buying it. Too much smoke and mirrors for my taste
