Not sure how we want to defend against Chelsea without Leah, but lets hope for the best.

 

[SA Gunner]

FFS, its 1-0 to Chelsea.

Weathering an early storm here.

Almost another goal for Chelsea, they are all over us.

 

[NieThePiet]

Yep, could have been 2:0 already.

This defense without Leah isn't the same, a top class CB is needed to compete with the biggest teams.

 

[SA Gunner]

Starting to play our game now, Chelsea are already in high press, counter attacking mode but that hasnt stopped us from finding our feet.

We need to equalise soon.

 

[SA Gunner]

Some dangerous situations here for us, Chelsea are countering at lightning speed.

Zinsberger making some crucial saves here to keep us in the game.

 

[SA Gunner]

Halftime, Chelsea leads by a goal to nil.

We've come back nicely into the game, but still no breakthrough. We have the ability to turn this one around.

 

[NieThePiet]

At least we are still in the game with this result.

Better in the last 15 minutes, but Chelsea had the much better chances and Zinsberger saved us a few times.

 

[Keplaz]

We've really missed Leah. I like Jen Beattie but her and Wuben Moy are really struggling as a pairing. Also think Maanum has had the worst game I've ever seen her have in an Arsenal shirt. Jordan has to come in second half.

 

[Pyres7]

We're lucky it's only 1-0, really need to sharpen up defensively in the second half.

Yeah they kept getting behind Beattie. I think she needs a faster CB partner to cover her.

 

[Keplaz]

Game over. I'm going to bed. Later chaps.

 

[SA Gunner]

Chelsea scores to make it 2-0.

 

[NieThePiet]

Yep, Game over sadly.
Very deserved.

Both CBs lack pace too.
We have options for the offensive and midfield now, but defensively there is still a gap.

 

[luigicalzone]

What a goal to make it 3:0

 

[SA Gunner]

Good goal by Chelsea to make it 3.

Game over.

 

[freeglennhelder2]

That third Chelsea goal was an absolute stunner

 

[SA Gunner]

Game over, we lost this one wholeheartedly, well done Chelsea.

Lets get back to the league and pushing for that one.
