Chloe and Rachel whizz through a bumper FA Cup weekend, where we saw a glimpse of the Chelsea we’re used to after their impressive win against Man United. A cracking Sam Kerr goal wasn’t a bad way to commemorate her 150th appearance, either!

In other FA Cup business, we react to the news that next season’s controversial format changes have been delayed. Plus, we’re joined by Oxford United goalkeeper Maddison Millington-Stanbury to chat about the club's dream FA Cup journey, her big dreams and football continuing to be a safe haven after her autism diagnosis.

Yes, Villa fans, we know you lost 7-3 at Villa Park... But PLEASE don’t start panicking about Natalia Arroyo. Everything’s fine, it was just a mad game...

Elsewhere, we review a near-perfect week for Man United - even if Jim Ratcliffe seems intent on spoiling it. Plus, after the controversy around Eni Aluko this week, we chat about representation and inclusion within punditry across the women’s game.

You think you've seen it all before, perched on top of the wobbly commentary gantry at the Chigwell Construction Stadium... and then West Ham deliver those last 10 minutes against Brighton. Chloe and Rachel saw all the drama in the flesh and reflect on it all. What a relegation battle we've got on our hands!

But first off, there's the small matter of Arsenal beating the league leaders Manchester City to continue the Renéeformation and at long, long last just going direct with Olivia Smith up top. We also discuss Chelsea's less than convincing win against Spurs and what the departure of their influential head of football means for the club moving forward. And Madonna rocks up to a WSL game! But we're not Hung Up on it...
