Summary
Chloe, Rachel and Jessy Parker Humphreys head to the studio to discuss the WSL’s first managerial casualty, as Hope Powell leaves Brighton after their poor start. We wonder where it’s all gone wrong and what Brighton can expect next.
We also check in with another cracking Arsenal week - even if Jonas Eidevall has found something to moan about - and we look ahead to this weekend’s seismic clash between Man United and Chelsea! Can United make the jump?

| 0:11.0 | We've had our first managerial casualty of the season. |
| 0:14.9 | I think we all thought it might be Everton because they had seen it many last year, but |

| 1:05.9 | Yeah, thanks for having me back. |
| 1:07.3 | I think this means that I was a good enough car guest with Rachel on Sunday that I could |
| 1:12.5 | get the call up. |
| 1:13.5 | I can agree, I did have to feedback the rest of the group before we'd added you to the |
