Uncomfirmed rumour that a former WPS coach has taken over Chelsea Ladies

 

Chelsea Ladies new manager is surprise surprise...Emma Hayes

and she took in her lugagge Adriana who just tweeted : @ADRIANA__MARTIN
Ahora si, ya es oficial! Jugaré para Chelsea FC lo que queda de temporada! Muy contenta por poder jugar en este gran club!!

 

Well it's going to be the same old same old winner Arsenal LFC.
The table

 

ESPN UK broadcast a few game per season, you can find streams online. I am not sure when the next game is shown but will come back to you.

 

Day 12 out of 14 tomorrow and today actually :

Doncaster - Bristol
Arsenal - Lincoln
Everton - Chelsea
Liverpool - Birmingham

Rumour going round saying Liverpool owners have decided to back the ladies team with some proper money and sign a certain american defender who has won the WPS title.

The table as of today at 5 pm BST:

1. Arsenal 24 pts 10 games +16
2. Everton 19 pts 11 games +3
3. Birmingham 18 pts 10 games +8
4. Bristol 16 pts 10 games +3
5. Chelsea 14 points 11 games -2
6. Lincoln 12 points 11 games -3
7. Doncaster 7 points 10 games -13
8. Liverpool 5 points 11 games -12

 

Well the FA...it was even worse last year. They had 7 games in 6 weeks before the WC and the same after the WC maybe 7 games in 7 weeks. Why because England can go into many training camps that way.

 

I think a team like Montpellier should really approach her, after all they signed her brother during the summer.

 

The table after Day 12:

1. Arsenal 27 pts 11 games +17
2. Everton 22 pts 12 games +4

Arsenal retains the WSL title . I would say that Arsenal team has not played much quality football for most of the season, but has a winning mentality and a lot of experience.

 

The Silly season has already started. Whitney Engen is coming.
A big signing for Liverpool Ladies as they had no real center back this season as per Matt Beard.

 

Fara Merrett as she is known on her travelling documents is also bound to Liverpool from Everton.

 

This year has been horrendous for managers. 2 of them lost their job early in the summer and another 2 just got sacked or resigned.

Glenn Harris at Lincoln and astonishingly Mo Marley at Everton
Mo Marley has been managing since 2002 at Everton. She will carry on working with England U19 and might take over from Hope Powell soon.

 

Continuing the silly season theme, Lincoln signs Ashley baker who comes straight from a USA university.

 

Andy Spence, Mo Marley's assistant takes over at Everton. Dowie, Williams and Easton leave the club.

 

Listed below are the players that were out of contract and have officially decided to stay with their teams :

Bristol :Jessica Fishlock
Lincoln : Jess Clarke, Sophie Bradley, Sophie Walton, Sophie Barker, Carla Cantrell, Prcious Hamilton, Casey Stoney
Liverpool : Hannah Keryakoplis, Sarah Quantrill, Danielle Gibbons, Elizabeth Ince, Lillie Bilson

 

An old and a new news more signings at Liverpool Ladies.
Bonner, Dowie and Williams.

 

Keith Boanas ex Charlton, Millwall and Estonia National team takes over at Lincoln.

 

Lucy Bronze (ex UNC) moves from Everton to Liverpool as well.

 

Karen Bardsley has signed for Lincoln Ladies. Will she get more playing time than at Linkopings last year ?

 

Lucy Staniforth tweeted she is going to Bristol Academy.
