Worries for the WSL, and Chelsea’s Dominance Continues

'Crossways' hosts Ian Wright and Steph Houghton go deep on arguably the most crucial conversation in women's football right now—the long-term competitiveness of the WSL. With the record-breaking $1M signing of Naomi Girma to Chelsea, the title race all but over in January, and relegation pretty much sealed too, what needs to fundamentally change? Steph and Wrighty debate some options, from NWSL-style spend caps, to relooking at the teams that are currently part of the WSL, and the long-term, league-wide issues that stockpiling talent at academy level is exacerbating. Away from the business end of football, 'Crossways' previews Manchester City vs. Arsenal, shows Jen Beattie all the love and respect on her retirement announcement, and share predictions for Sunday's matchups. Episode 16 is a big one. Hosts: Steph Houghton and Ian Wright Executive Producers: Roscoe Bowman and Ryan Hunn  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
