Chelsea aim for a fifth straight title and Bristol City battle relegation - what to look out for at every WSL club as the new season begins
were tipped to break up the big four but their goals are now a little more attainable. Brian Sorensen’s reign has brought stability but improving upon last season’s sixth-placed finish is a huge ask.
Sorensen faces his greatest test yet because of the players he has lost. Gabby George signed for Manchester United on deadline day, leaving no time to address the hole in defence she will leave. Jess Park, who was at the heart of so much of their creative work, returns to Manchester City after her loan.
Rikke Sevecke has also moved stateside, and it is hard not to feel that for all Everton’s attacking potential – notably Nicoline Sorensen and Italy international Martina Piemonte – they are going to ship goals.Leicester looked destined to go down for so long that there is some surprise they are still here – and in fact it is testament to the board’s commitment to the women’s team that they have continued to invest even after the men’s team’s relegation.
The message across the club is that top six will be the aim – though that is hugely ambitious. If there is one person up to the job, it is Willie Kirk, their director-of-football-turned-head-coach who has recruited well. Aside from Kirk, the medical staff could be the most important people at the club this season. Hannah Cain and Canadian forward Deanne Rose will be vital but both have had their recent careers severely disrupted by injuries.
