The WSL is often described as a three-tier league made up of the battle to avoid relegation, the fight for the title and the struggle to be best of the rest. That is not the reality though, because there is no competition at the top and Chelsea are operating in a league of their own above the rest.
The 1-0 win for Sonia Bompastor’s side over Arsenal was testament to that, their domination – even in a year of change – means they remain unbeaten and sit pretty at the top.
