We looking good but Chelsea don't look like losing so it be our games against them we need to take 4 of them

 

[Mr HJ]

Yui and Jill are clearly a cut above nearly every player in the WSL we are so lucky to have both at the same time.

Yep, ‘nearly every other player’ … apart from teammate Lauren Hemp ;-)

I'm at the game and we've been pretty dominant but Palace has a window of opportunity to get back into to it at 2-0. Palace were dead on their feet though at 70 minutes so that window shut.

That was the pattern we used to see from the men's team a few seasons ago but we rarely see these days, when we're chasing the game late on.

Shaw has been really impressive today for me, all round play, link play, scoring.

 

[Mr HJ]

I'm not liking what I'm seeing from Gracie Prior, she has a lot of work to do with her passing - four passes either straight out or to an opponent - you can't get away with that against better teams. For reference you could see straight away with Layzell she was comfortable on the ball. She is young though!

 

[chesterbells]

That’s what we wanna see more of Chloe!

 

[JRockBlues]

Poor finishing and some decent saves from their keeper kept the score down. Worldie from Jess and an assist with a perfect cross for Bunny get's her the player of the match for me.

 

[cleavers]

Good result without being on top form. Great goal from Jess Park.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

There you go Jess - fantastic finish.

Just seen the three goals - all good finishes and three points in the bag, but it still felt listening to the commentary and watching the stats that it was another heavy weather performance. Even at 78/79% possession we never seem to put teams to the sword.
