Women’s Super League: Why Arsenal and Chelsea change this summer

Chelsea entered Saturday two points behind Arsenal and finished there.

Halfway through the final day, it appeared they didn’t have much to play for as Arsenal were beaten 3-1 by Liverpool in the final 3-1, with Alessia Russo scoring twice.

On the other hand, at Stamford Bridge, Carey scored the only goal against Manchester United in her last match.

That goal was his 116th for the club, making Fran Kirby the record scorer for Chelsea in all competitions.

Kerr, who has been tipped to move to the United States, said it was an honor to play for Chelsea.

“I have the most amazing memories and I will carry them with me forever,” she told Sky Sports. “Chelsea and London will always be home to me now.

“My little boy was born here and I have so many good friends at this amazing club. It will be hard to leave but I have only good things to say about this amazing club.”

Arsenal now have a two-game advantage over Chelsea this season, which saw them both knocked out of the Champions League in the quarter-finals and out of the trophy next year.

While their failure to hold City may have left the Gunners on a sad note, their league form this season has been better than last year, picking up three more points in the campaign.

McCabe managed as an assistant in her last game for the club and expressed her joy at being in charge of the team one last time before she leaves.

“I was enjoying every second of it,” she said. “My team’s talk was to go out and have fun and play the Arsenal way, play our football, and we certainly did that. We were playing with smiles on our faces. I’m happy to finish with a win.”

Both sides will rebuild in the summer, Chelsea need a striker to replace Kerr. They are favorites to sign Manchester City out-of-contract Khadija Shaw.

Arsenal, meanwhile, will need depth in their squad to help them cope with the tight schedule they face next season.

They have also been linked with big-name signings, including Bayern Munich and England midfielder Georgia Stanway and Barcelona full-back Ona Battle.
