Ben Haines, Ellen White, Jen Beattie and special guest Karen Bardsley reflect on the weekend that may well have sealed the title for City as they beat holders Chelsea 5-1 to put them 11 points clear.

KB gives an insight into behind the scenes at City and manager Jeglertz style and why City are now the team to fear. Has Sonia Bompastor got her tactics wrong with the fight for those Champions League spots very much on.

The transfer window closes today with the likes of Georgia Stanway and Ona Batlle potentially on the move to Arsenal in the summer. Could Katie McCabe be leaving the club?

Plus more history for Arsenal as they win the Champions Cup with Jen representing the Kim Little fan club from across the pond!
