Women’s Super League: Manchester United left wanting more despite ‘statement’ draw against Chelsea

The biggest question at the beginning of this season – the same question asked in the last six WSL campaign – whether everyone can end Chelsea’s domination.

Blues won the cup of the last period by making 22 matches in the first season of Sonia Bompastor’s first season – a part of a domestic treble while lifting the Women’s FA Cup and League Cup.

In fact, it has been more than 500 days since Chelsea lost a league match – 4-3 defeats on May 1, 2024 at Liverpool.

Manchester United approached to end this line in the first two matches on Friday night and was proud of his Skinner players “the brave performance”.

“We are building. You can see, you can feel,” he said.

“We were disappointed that we could not win the game. The chance we created cannot create many teams against Chelsea. [the players]. “

Since the introduction of the Women’s Championship in 2019, United quickly appeared as WSL title contestants and finished only two points of Chelsea in 2022-23.

They won the FA Cup the next season – the first Great Women’s Cup.

While a draw against the current league leaders could be considered as a kidnapped opportunity for United, the former England believed how much the club was progressing.

“You have to look at this consistency,” he said. “Now they have played 11 times against Chelsea and now they have been drawn for the second time, so it’s really good for their consistency and what they’re doing as a club and team.

“It shows that you work and develop.”

When asked if Skinner deserved more loans for the rise of United’s competing with the settled clubs, White added: “These players do what they do with the actors, how determined they are philosophy, DNA, how determined they are.

“There is no amount of money or chelsea, arsenal or [Manchester] He did the city. “
