"It gives it some excitement - the pressure is on Manchester City to hold that lead,"
"We were in that position last year where we had quite a big gap and had to hold on to it with teams chasing us down. It makes it fun and exciting."
"If Manchester City were to lose the league now it's seen as a negative. If Chelsea were to bridge that gap, that's a huge positive."
"That mentality is easier as a club to digest. It would be nice to be at the top. But you just have to take it for what it is and enjoy it."
Chelsea sits nine points behind Women's Super League leaders Manchester City after a damaging defeat by Arsenal and City's late winner against London City Lionesses. Chelsea must win Sunday’s match to reduce the gap and keep hopes of a seventh successive title alive. Lucy Bronze remains composed and motivated, viewing the situation as exciting and believing pressure now rests on Manchester City to maintain their lead. Bronze has a decorated career, winning multiple Champions Leagues, two European Championships with England, and a domestic treble with Chelsea, while continuing to play a key role for club and country.
