So they've both kept up with how the team have been doing.

And then I think the third thing is just to give them a little bit of time because they've gone through significant events in their life, but they're both amazing football players.

And I've no doubt whatsoever when all of those things come together, they will make huge contributions to this team.

But as always, I don't want to put too much pressure on them, especially as young mums.

I want to make sure that they feel supported to do it in the right way, in the right time and with the right amount of support.

Well, I think she made an unbelievable start with her life at Chelsea, not just in terms of scoring goals and contributing to goals, but I think she is closing the gap in her games.

You know, you see from...

scoring goals like that.

She's unbelievable at getting in on the back post.

We all know that she's got the ability to chop inside and score goals from tight angles, but it's these back post areas I think she's really starting to excel in.

You can see she's growing in confidence.

I think...

The great thing about playing for a team like Chelsea, and of course I've got no bias, is that she's playing with so many world-class players.

But she's also having to play against different types of set-ups and different structures.

And I think that playing against teams that sit a little bit deeper...

I think this is the area of her game she's got to work at and I think it's the perfect situation for her to develop in that.

I'm super proud of how well she's done and how easily she's settled and I expect her to continue to progress.

I mean,

First off, it's so great when we talk about our players playing at all these wonderful clubs all over the world and in the NWSL.

It's something that I'm so proud of.
