Marc Skinner believes Manchester United Women deserve more credit for their achievements this season, and says they will be keeping an eye on Chelsea’s trip to Reading on Saturday’s final day of the WSL season.
While their chances of winning a first WSL title may be out of their hands, Man Utd still head into Saturday’s finale with a shot of lifting the trophy.

“We’re growing up in front of the public eye, whereas other teams have already done that. This team, in a pressure cauldron, have not only performed well, they have won games of football.
“Maybe we’re still in contention to win it and if we don’t, we’ll finish second, but to do that and disrupt the top historical…
