Chelsea defender Kadeisha Buchanan said: “The past few seasons have been challenging, but I’m improving on and off the pitch. This might be my best season yet, but I know there’s more to come. It’s great to have [former Lyon team-mate] Lucy [Bronze] back [in England]. We’ve both grown as players, and our partnership feels strong. Communication has been key as we adapt to the new coach and style.”
Catarina Macario will not be a part of Chelsea’s squad in today’s match as she continues to build fitness. Macario suffered a knee irritation in the summer. Manager Sonia Bompastor said: “We are building some minutes and building her fitness. That’s part of the plan and part of her own process. We work a lot individually with every player and we try to give them what they need to be fit and back to the best level, or their best version. We just felt it was the good decision to have her stay in London, working individually with some staff, and she will be ready for the game on Sunday.”
