Chelsea are showing early signs of regaining the form and resilience that are needed to challenge for the Women’s Super League title. Both outlets note that doubts had emerged after the team lost its WSL crown last season, prompting questions about whether its previous level of performance had been sustained.

In this campaign, the coverage points to positive early indicators, suggesting Chelsea have “recovered” their spark. While the sources agree on the broader storyline—concern after last season’s title loss followed by encouraging signs in the current run—they do not provide new, specific match details in the excerpts provided. As a result, the emphasis across both pieces is on overall trajectory rather than particular results, with both framing the question as whether Chelsea can become title contenders again.
