On Chelsea - they're a wonderful side no doubt, but Christ they've had very kind draws all season.
6 draws now - every single one at home against a kind opponent. The only time they'll leave London is for the League Cup final and they haven't come across a single fellow top 5 team in the WSL until the final itself. A remarkable leg up.
Their draws this season
League Cup
QF Durham H
SF West Ham H
FA
4th rnd Charlton H
5th rnd Everton H
QF Palace H
SF Liverpool H
At seasons end when they've likely swept the board and won the lot, the question "just how have they done it" will be partly answered by the above. Never playing away, ever - playing only 1 other top side in either Cup.
