Buckle up! The final stretch of the season is here and this is what we’ve been waiting for. Over the next several weeks the Blues’ 2021 trophy cabinet could be brimming with as many as four shiny new major trophies.
One of those is the FA Cup, and Chelsea return from international duty to face London City Lionesses in the Round of 32. With the contest preceding three HUGE matches, it will be fascinating to see how Emma Hayes approaches things. She is just as likely to use the 90 minutes as a “tune-up” for the primary XI, as she is to rest her big players for Wednesday’s WSL title showdown against Manchester City.
