Ellie Carpenter said in her post game interview that this pre-season with Chelsea was the first time she'd been involved in an entire pre-season with any team. She's been playing professionally for 10 years so that is insane. But also a reminder of the NWSL/WLeague double seasons they used to do.

Maika Hamano vs Man City | WSL 25-26

Hamano scored a goal for Chelsea's second but I was very impressed with her workrate off the ball. She is a tireless runner, who contributes a lot in the pressing beyond her obvious upside on the ball.

Big season for her imo!

The thing we don't like to say often, as it's akin to looking directly at an eclipse, is a good chunk of football fandom is just brain rot. Football fandom *can* be a great thing, that gives you a sense of community, but so much is tribalistic, pessimistic cynicism and conspiracy.

Very true. Even just sifting through all the crashout discourse to record my take on the Alyssa Thompson news for the latest episode was a nightmare I wish on no one
