'We want to go the season unbeaten'

FT: Chelsea 1-0 Arsenal

Chelsea

Chelsea's Lucy Bronze, speaking to BBC Two: "I thought it was quite an even game, both did really well. I've not watched the penalty back, Kim Little assures me it wasn't a penalty but I don't know. We just saw the game out in the end."

On the tactics: "From the off we were front-footed, it's something we want to do in most games. I think we're still getting used to the tactics of Sonia. The great thing about Chelsea this year is there's not one XI, we adapt in different ways. We started really well on the front foot."

On what Sonia Bompastor's instructions are: "She wants us to dominate games, to be in control of games. Chelsea in the past have been good on the transition but we also need to be able to dictate games, you can't just play at full pace for 90 minutes for 40 games a season."

On Arsenal being tough to play against: "They're a good team, they've found a bit of form recently under the new manager. We knew it would be a good game and it would be tough to break down."

On the gap at the top of the table: "At the end of the day we're trying to win trophies and that's difficult, we wanted to get a good stretch of points so that when we're trying to compete in all cups we're in a good place. We can afford that but we want to go the season unbeaten so that's the way it us."
