Chelsea fan here. Weir is a fabulous player but there is a downside with her game I feel. She is very comfortable in possession so when receives the ball she often keeps it, drags it from side to side looking for a killer pass. When watching her her however I sometimes feel that just because you can doesn't mean you should. For me she slows the game too much.Most of the time there just isn't a killer pass available so just move the ball quickly.

Was delighted that she didn't. I think she's a terrific player who would improve Chelsea's midfield. I wish we had signed her.

I thought she was outstanding on Sunday. Lot's of things I could point to but the most impressive was when Sam Kerr was running at her with every other City outfielder completely out of the game. First she closed Kerr's path and then, even though they were in the area by this time, she dispossessed the Aussie with a perfectly timed, clean challenge. Bear in mind that this was against a player who regularly runs way from WSL defenders. It was brilliant defending.

For me Mace and Chelsea's Carter were the outstanding performers on the day.

All fair points, a good post. You guys seem more of a team at the moment - good luck for the rest of the year.

We are seriously missing this girl this season. I'll admit when she first signed, I was like "Who?"

I quickly learned "who." Chloe, in my opinion, was our signing of the season and quite likely player of the season last year.

So happy to see her re-up with us!

Totally agree, she's a very good player, and on form she dominates, but she's been off form a while now.
 
Until they sack the walking disaster that is Gareth Taylor they will always be shite underachievers
But you just know they will give the clown another year
He seems to have a patron in the club or CFG set up who ensures he gets shifted around rather than being sacked for his obvious incompetence.
Look how well the youths are doing once Tim Nice But Dim got fucked off?
One league title for the women is a pretty poor return given the huge investment

Chelsea vs Arsenal. Big game on sky sports.

Why the fuck has Hinchcliffe got the gig?

Off to watch Porto Sporting instead.

I'm watching that at the moment, neither of them look particularly good, all the more galling that we didn't beat either of them. I will be multi tasking when the Sporting game starts, the women's game on the tele, Sporting on the lap top.

I watched the first 10 mins or so. Scrappy. Hopefully it improves for you.

Going for a 1-0 Chelsea win. It’s what they do in games like this.
