Love this podcast series! It's really great that the interview questions are tailored for each player! Fran is pure Chelsea!

[@StephenRichardsonUK]

Fran Kirby what a player she has been for Chelsea, unfortunately some serious injuries but a top top player!

[@consciouscreator2526]

If not for those injuries, I believe she would be the best in the world.

[@Katieforty4]

Super Fran! The Zola of the women's game... can't wait for this one.

[@Calvinstrikes]

Chelsea legend

[@theresepineda8009]

It wasn’t long enough 😢 ❤ What a brilliant interview

[@marshallsdocumentariesandr6439]

Super Francesca. An England & Chelsea legend. Poor lady has suffered with injury, health & loss, but has always come back to her sparkling best especially during the Euros & especially against Sweden. All love to Fran. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍

[@couturecriminal8330]

Fran Kirby legendary 115goals in 200games what a ratio with a win rate of 75% and she should have had even more goals this season and she was coming off the bench she is such an xG threat such a natural in getting in good areas a great combination of a playmaker with an eye for goal like Macario if she gets anywhere near Kirby she will be one of the greats and with the chances she had just this season some were unlucky,others I was shouting at the TV in both instances she had hit the post its so marginal with her she is great at shot placement is elite and needs to be studied never uses her laces always side foot but her headers are always special because they are so rare. I can think of the Brighton game of the top of my head she would even be more clear. I think she has the greatest case of any Chelsea player to get a statue next to the late great Peter Osgood.💙

[@VISHRUTSHENOY]

Kirby 💙

[@mayrinaidah5463]

Jesus i just love Supa Fran so much please continue blessing her ❤❤❤❤

[@smudgercfc9827]

really hope club give Fran another contract; will be devastated if she is let go at the end of the season. Best player to wear the shirt, and even with the injuries still achieved so much for the club.

[@barclayswsltv]

This interview much better than the one with Millie Bright, most of the time it was chat about England!!! 👎

[@annsouthcott5485]

I can't help but feel this is her leaving chelsea pre interview.

[@djangoluis6416]

Make this show a talk show with audience for better interactions.

[@yaggalimba7994]

I love this interview a lot,but does this mean Fran will be leaving at the end of the season?
