Gemma Bonner could make her 150th appearance for Liverpool Women against Chelsea in the WSL this week
In the corridors of the AXA Training Centre in Kirkby, Liverpool defender Gemma Bonner has managed to carve out her own piece of history.

"I think it's a huge honour to have something like that amongst such special players who have definitely left a legacy at the club.
The defender has turned out 17 times in the WSL this term and has played a key part in the Reds' top-flight revival. And while she remains focused on ensuring Matt Beard's side secure a top five finish, Bonner is touched by the prospect of reaching yet another impressive milestone in a Liverpool shirt.
Should Bonner feature against Chelsea, she will know to expect a difficult game. Emma Hayes' side are currently second in the table and chasing their fifth consecutive WSL title, meaning Liverpool will have to be at their best if they are to repeat last season's feat of toppling the Blues at Prenton Park.
"We’ve prepared well and we’ve shown that we’re capable of beating the top teams but we have to have that belief and that consistency in our performance. They’ve got big players but so have we so I think if we don’t approach the game believing we can win it, there’s no point in us playing the game."
