Chelsea, Bronze targets unbeaten WSL season

Chelsea defender Lucy Bronze has said that her side "want to go the season unbeaten" after their win over title rivals Arsenal at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

The 1-0 win against their London rivals has strengthened Chelsea's position at the top of the table, extending the gap between them and second place Manchester United to seven points.

Manager Sonia Bompastor -- who replaced Emma Hayes in the summer -- is yet to lose a game in any competition and has dropped points just once in the WSL when her side drew 1-1 with Leicester City in December.

The Blues are also still in contention for the Women's Champions League, Women's League Cup and the Women's FA Cup.

"We're trying to win four trophies and that's difficult," Bronze told BBC Two.

"We wanted to get a good stretch of points [to be in a good position] when we're in the thick of it in March, April and May. It's difficult [then] and you might drop points but we're in a good place now and we're on the up. We want to go the season unbeaten.

"There's records out there to break. Chelsea's a team that has always wanted to do that.

"We've never clinched the Champions League. We've got five league titles in a row but [going] unbeaten [would be] unbelievable. We're on a good road to doing that."

Arsenal hold the record as the only English team to stay unbeaten in all competitions when they won the quadruple in 2006-07.

Should Chelsea continue their winning form, it will be the third time they have achieved an unbeaten season in the WSL having met that achievement in both 2017-18 and 2019-20.
