Description

Steph Houghton and Ian Wright unpack the differing fortunes of WSL teams in this week's dramatic UEFA Women's Champions League fixtures. Arsenal’s win got our hosts wondering if the club should focus their energy on retaining the UWCL. Chelsea’s squad-building skills got Wrighty green-eyed, but it still wasn’t enough to bag the win against a Barcelona side offering very little. Manchester United were on the end of a 5-2 defeat in Wolfsburg after another heavy defeat to rivals Manchester City at the weekend—what’s the root of their poor form? In more positive news, Ian and Steph were delighted to see Freya Godfrey make the Lionesses squad, and hope to see plenty of minutes given to fresh faces in the upcoming friendlies against China and Ghana.
