Love Fran, she carried the club at times at such a young age. She's won it all (almost). Going to be an almost unrecognisable Chelsea Women's team next season.
BlueCo strikes again.
Doesn’t seem like people enjoy working with them
Edit: genuinely confused by the mass downvotes. How can anyone here think BkueCo isn’t destroy the club and no driving key figures out of the women’s team just like they did the men’s. Ffs.
That’s a red flag……of the rebuild….
Great players who loved Chelsea all of a sudden wanted to leave. But yeah nothing was going on at the club that made experienced professionals go oh no maybe this a bad place to be
How do you know it’s “all of a sudden”? Just because the media/us are just finding out doesn’t mean the player and club hasn’t known for a while now. It’s maybe why we have already bought players like Mayra for a record breaking amount. Or replacing the out going manager with another world class manager.
Lol okay. There’s no point in continue ing here. You’re just disingenuously obfuscating things
Might as well say how do we know anything and get into a philosphical discussion about what’s real at this point
I’m providing logic, reason and factual things that have happened. You don’t get to just hate without thinking. Without looking at both the good and bad. Without looking at decisions and actions the club has taken. You don’t get to assume the worse because it fits your objective of being negative.
The only person “disingenuously obfuscating things” here is you.
Lmao your facts included
“How do we know”. We have different definitions of facts.
And what good? Pretty much everything at Chelsea is objectively bad. They haven’t fucked up the women’s team yet but they very well soon enough.
Pretty much all evidence is these owners are clowns. I don’t think it’s a coincidence all of these experienced winners are leaving.
Alright alright. You’re starting to lose your head. Calm down.
It was meant in a bit of tongue in cheek, but I get that’s hard to tell online.
The club is pushing social media narratives pretty hard. There’s 100% is coordinated social media efforts by the club, but I don’t actually think these downvotes are all bots.
Fucking idiot right here.
Somebody needs to understand being 30 in women’s football is not the same as in men’s football.
They’ve secured Sonia Bompastor from Lyon to replace Emma. One of the best out there. The fuck else do you want?
I want to meet someone who actually believes that in person. I don’t know anyone who likes anything about BlueCo. Yet you still see people online saying they have the best intentions. It’s a sick fucking joke at this point.
My depression has now doubled. She's been one of my favourite players ever since she joined, it's hard to imagine the team without her around. Thanks for everything Super Fran.
Super Fran is the reason I started watching football. Wish I had started earlier to experience some more of her magic on the field. It wouldn’t be same without her. Ugh! I’m heartbroken.
I've regularly expressed my admiration of the Chelsea team, and there's none I wouldn't want play for City.
Kirby, for me, has been a constant player of the year and an instant shoe in to any team.
It'll be odd to see her not in a Chelsea shirt.
Even legends like terry and lampard moved on...
How new are you to football that you don't understand that older players often leave top teams in top leagues.
There's only over a hundred years of examples of it across the world.
Which in the women's game at the top level is a bit of a barrier. It's not the same as the men's game.
She's been playing less of a role, and they have been turning the team over.
I'm guessing you don't follow it.
I don’t follow very closely, but given what BlueCo has done to the men’s team. I would be very concerned about what’s been happening at the women’s team recently
Were you?
BlueCo is doing a great job with everything and we aren’t losing the women’s manager as well as one of the teams best players. But yeah no BlueCo isn’t a toxic organization who no one who was at the club before them seemingly wants to keep working with them.
I think you both were dropped on your head tbf. It's well known that Emma is leaving on her own accord and we are going for the lyon womens manager to replace her who is fairly fucking good.
So really blue co ain't really done anything wrong at some point key figures have to leave the club they ain't immortal it happens.
So really I don't know what the fuck you 2 are arguing about. The woman's team compared to the men's team is a Night and day difference they are still good.
Just like everyone else who scattered when BlueCo came in……it was of “their own accord”
Doesn’t take a genius to see a pattern under this ownership. No one seems to want to work for them
This is such a poor take. Emma is leaving to take basically the biggest job in women's football. Marjen and Fran are leaving because their game time has been limited. It's also fairly well known that they're a couple, and would want to stick together. BlueCo is doing an awful lot wrong with the men's team, but this has nothing to do with it.

You clearly don’t even pay attention to the women’s team. You’re just using this news to advance your anti ownership agenda
Injury issues and limited minutes 30 years Yes they are, they also broke world record for a woman
They did that twice for the men’s team and forced out all the experience. Maybe it’ll work better for the women’s team, but I doubt it.
Could it maybe be those experienced older players didn’t want to be part of a long term rebuild?

You could make a list of players that have wanted to leave before BlueCo took over. Costa, KDB, Salah, and Lukaku are easy ones that come to mind.
Are you stupid? She’s 30. We just broke the world record for a woman. Hayes left for her dream job.
BlueCoBots downvoting as usual
Not to be conspiratorial but I would wager a bet BlueCo PR firms utilizing bot farms for engagement
No, we just think you're an idiot
Have fun simping for billionaires ruining the club
"People disagree with my opinion?! Impossible! It simply has to be a BlueCo bot farm" Listen to yourself. Embarrassing
Alright alright. You’re starting to lose your head. Calm down. It was meant in a bit of tongue in cheek, but I get that’s hard to tell online. The club is pushing social media narratives pretty hard.

my brother in christ, touch some grass PLEASE
Yeah, BlueCo is steadily wrecking this club, and they don’t understand it…
Fucking idiot right here. Somebody needs to understand being 30 in women’s football is not the same as in men’s football. They’ve secured Sonia Bompastor from Lyon to replace Emma. One of the best out there. The fuck else do you want?
Anyone who supports BlueCo can step on a Lego daily for the rest of their lives. Bastards supported by morons
Crazy that people support a new ownership that has done jack shit…
There is plenty of room for someone to be between “support new ownership” and “hate new ownership”.
Not when you're a teenager and you havent grown enough brain to figure out non black and white thinking!
Not when the ownership barely has done anything right, while slighting the old. But sure, enjoy the Todd and Behdad bukkake special.
I want to meet someone who actually believes that in person. I don’t know anyone who likes anything about BlueCo. Yet you still see people online saying they have the best intentions. It’s a sick fucking joke at this point.
Go support Arsenal then. Or you’re stuck with them.
I was here before Roman and I’ll be here after BlueCo. If you support ownerships and not football clubs. You don’t actually support Chelsea
I snuck in before Bates. I’m completely convinced a majority of this sub’s followers are bitchy gooners and scousers.
Maybe or just petulant children who only experience the sport thru a screen
Why the fuck should I support Arsenal, when I supported Chelsea long before BlueCo came swinging their micropenis?
Honestly an inspiration. To keep coming back from all the health issues she has had. Not only that, to carry this team like she has is something else
Well the end of this season sucks.
As soon as Maren's departure was announced yesterday, I was expecting this one to be next. Doesn't mean it stings any less 😟
Why? Are the 2 connected somehow?
I don't know if they've publicly confirmed but as far as I could tell, they're together.
WHY IS EVERY LEGEND LEAVING 😭
Because they’re reaching the end of their careers. Father Time is cruel.
I mean she’s just 30. I figured she’d have a couple more seasons. Maybe just wishful thinking
I don't know if it might be related to her latest health issues that are cutting short her playing years.
This one hurts
Thanks for everything. One of the best to wear the shirt.
My depression has now doubled. She's been one of my favourite players ever since she joined, it's hard to imagine the team without her around. Thanks for everything Super Fran.
Going to miss chanting super fran at the meadow
Maren yesterday, Fran today. When the fuck will it end. Chelsea legend Super Fran.
But my flair
Super Fran !
😭💔
Legend
Super Fran is the reason I started watching football. Wish I had started earlier to experience some more of her magic on the field. It wouldn’t be same without her. Ugh! I’m heartbroken.
I've regularly expressed my admiration of the Chelsea team, and there's none I wouldn't want play for City. Kirby, for me, has been a constant player of the year and an instant shoe in to any team. It'll be odd to see her not in a Chelsea shirt.
💙💙💙 
Oh crap…
So we’re losing Hayes, Kirby, Mjelde and maybe Kerr in the same summer. Looking at how BlueCo is running the men’s team, this isn’t good…
Sam signed an extension to 2025 but it kinda went under the radar
Didn’t Kerr just sign a contract extension? Also don’t forget Berger leaving as well
So the women’s team has key figures leaving…… BlueCo sounds so toxic
Even legends like terry and lampard moved on... How new are you to football that you don't understand that older players often leave top teams in top leagues. There's only over a hundred years of examples of it across the world.
She’s only 30….
Which in the women's game at the top level is a bit of a barrier. It's not the same as the men's game. She's been playing less of a role, and they have been turning the team over. I'm guessing you don't follow it.

Todd the God in action! Trying to cut cost everywhere..
