CFC's WPSL season kicks off this weekend and Associate Head Coach Maryn Beutler visits SDH AM to talk about the upcoming season and what her transition has been like to be a part of the franchise- from her move from Colorado

It was never going to be pretty, was it?!Matt Davies-Adams has got The Athletic's Chelsea experts Liam Twomey and Simon Johnson alongside him to look back on the narrow 1-0 victory over Manchester United in the Premier League on Friday night.We talk Marc Cucurella's incredible hot streak in front of goal, the invaluable contribution of Reece James which is making team selection difficult for Enzo Maresca - and the changing mood around the club and in the boardroom following the final home game of the season. Then it's off to Wembley - where CFCW wrapped up their remarkable domestic campaign in style by completing the treble in a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Man United. We'll be back on Thursday to look ahead to the MDA Derby to end all MDA Derbies... yikes!HOST: Matt Davies-AdamsWITH: Liam Twomey and Simon JohnsonPRODUCER: Lucy Oliva Hosted on Acast.

Surely they have to beat *this* Man United team?!Matt Davies-Adams, Liam Twomey and Sam Parkin assemble to look ahead to a huge Friday night and Sunday afternoon for Chelsea Football Club.We begin under the lights at Stamford Bridge, where at 20:15 on Friday evening the Blues host a Manchester United side who sit 16th in the table, haven't won a game in the Premier League since the 16th March, haven't won back-to-back league games all season AND are averaging less than a point a game under manager Ruben Amorim. So - why are we still not 100% sure that Enzo Maresca's side will be able to come away with the win? And who's going to fill the void left behind by Nicholas Jackson? The Athletic's United writer Carl Anka is on hand to give us the inside scoop on the opponents and their struggles. Then it's all about CFCW - looking to wrap up the domestic treble on Sunday afternoon when they take on Manchester United at Wembley. Carl sticks around to help us preview that one too as Sonia Bompastor's side look to sign off from this season in style. And - of course - we finish with a fiendishly tricky quiz...We'll be back on Monday to run the rule over the Manchester United double header in the Premier League and Women's FA Cup Final!

Oh, Nicholas...Matt Davies-Adams is joined by The Athletic's Liam Twomey and Luke Bosher to run the rule over Sunday's 2-0 defeat at Newcastle.There's only one place to start (unfortunately) - we get the post-match thoughts of Simon Johnson from the St. James' Park press box and hear him in conversation with Enzo Maresca following the 36th-minute red card handed out to Nicholas Jackson after his senseless forearm smash on Sven Botman.We touch on the lack of intensity from the very first minute, the tactical naivety of the side which seemed to have been found out by Eddie Howe - and what this means for hopes of securing a top five finish with just Manchester United and Nottingham Forest to come in the Premier League.As is almost always the case, CFCW provided some joy as they wrapped up a historic unbeaten WSL season in their last-gasp 1-0 win over Liverpool at Stamford Bridge!We'll be back at the slightly earlier time of Wednesday to look ahead to Friday night's really, really must-win game against hapless Manchester United at the Bridge - and we'll preview Sunday's Women's FA Cup Final at Wembley.HOST: Matt Davies-AdamsWITH: Luke Bosher, Liam Twomey and Simon JohnsonPRODUCER: Lucy Oliva Hosted on Acast.

False 9, anyone!? Matt Davies-Adams, Jessy Parker Humphreys and Liam Twomey are back for your second weekly dose of Chelsea chat. It's back to the seaside we go for the second game in a row as we preview the Premier League trip to the Amex. Our conversation is led by the big news that Nicholas Jackson has been ruled out for "around six to eight weeks" with a hamstring injury. Enzo Maresca says they will need to find 'different solutions' - but what are those solutions and how will Chelsea set up against Brighton and going forward?! We touch base with CFCW ahead of the visit of Everton in the WSL, having knocked them out of the FA Cup last weekend. Is the quadruple a serious possibility?! Plus - Sam Kerr has been found not guilty of causing racially aggravated harassment. And we bring you a quiz which features an inordinate amount of JFH chat... We'll be back on Monday to *hopefully* reflect on a happy Valentine's Day and weekend for all those of a Chelsea persuasion...

Well, that didn't go very well... Matt Davies-Adams has got Liam Twomey and Simon Johnson alongside him to look back on the pretty abject 2-1 defeat by Brighton on Saturday night which saw Chelsea dumped out of the FA Cup. We take a deep dive into the lacklustre performance, the absence of any fight or desire from the players - and the growing feeling of discontent around the job that Enzo Maresca is doing following his post-match comments that they could now 'focus on the Premier League and Conference League' - which it's fair to save haven't gone down particularly well with the fanbase. No such problems for CFCW - who fought back from a goal down to beat Everton 4-1 and book their place in the quarterfinals of the Women's FA Cup. We'll be back on Friday to look ahead to the trip to... oh no, Brighton! HOST: Matt Davies-Adams WITH: Liam Twomey and Simon Johnson PRODUCER: Lucy Oliva Learn more about your ad choices.

We don't want your shorts, Enzo...Matt Davies-Adams has got Jessy Parker Humphreys and Liam Twomey alongside him run the rule over the *slamming shut* of the transfer window AND the crucial three points against the Hammers.We begin with events on the field, as Chelsea came from behind to win a Premier League game at Stamford Bridge in which they've trailed at half time for the first time since December 2013 (no, seriously!). We reflect on the 2-1 win over West Ham - with the help of Simon at the ground - which certainly wasn't pretty but was mightily important for Enzo Maresca.Then - we attempt to round up all the deadline day deals, including the loan departures of Disasi, Felix, Chilwell and Chukwuemeka - as well as a host of academy products. What does it all mean?!With Jessy in tow it would be rude not to check in with the latest news surrounding CFCW - still unbeaten after a scrappy 1-0 win at Aston Villa courtesy of a fortunate late own goal but with Keira Walsh already looking like she could be a key difference maker with the quadruple still on...We'll be back on Thursday to preview Saturday night's trip to the seaside to take on Brighton in the 4th round of the FA Cup!HOST: Matt Davies-AdamsWITH: Liam Twomey, Jessy Parker Humphreys and Simon JohnsonPRODUCER: Lucy Oliva Hosted on Acast.
