Chelsea vs. Manchester City Women: 6 stars who could help decide the FA WSL title

The two best teams in the FA WSL after seven (or six, in the Blues' case) league matches played will square off on Saturday with the whole world watching, as Manchester City and Chelsea Women are set to do battle in a match that could very well be seen as a title-decider when the season closes. Manchester City manager Gareth Taylor is already hyping up this weekend's bout as such, and he absolutely should. Chelsea have been a powerhouse in women's football for years under Emma Hayes and now have another legendary manager at the helm in Sonia Bompastor. Both squads are littered with stars - new and old - and both are the top two teams in the league, with Chelsea only a point behind by virtue of the fact that they have played one fewer game than the Citizens.

Manchester United Women sign one of the world’s most proven center backs
