Man City not distracted as WSL title nears - Jeglertz

Manchester City manager Andree Jeglertz says they are "aware" they can win the Women's Super League title next week - but "it does not affect" their preparation.

City, who hold a nine-point lead over Chelsea at the top of the table, are chasing a first WSL title in 10 years.

If they beat Brighton on Saturday (12:00 BST) and Arsenal lose to bottom club Leicester City on Wednesday (19:00 BST) then Jeglertz's side will win the league.

Arsenal sit third in the table but have two games in hand. City, currently on 49 points, need to reach 54 to secure the title - unless the Gunners lose.

"We are definitely aware of the situation, fully aware. The situation is up to us and we cannot affect anything happening in the other game," said Jeglertz.

"For us, we have to win our game on Saturday and that is where we are. What happens in all the other games, we can just watch and see.

"We haven't put any attention on the other teams, it's just on how we can beat Brighton this weekend."

However, Jeglertz admitted there is "extra energy" in the City players as they close in on a memorable end to the campaign.

They also have an FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea to come next month (10 May) as they chase a domestic double.

"We have done everything like we normally do and we're not changing anything. Everybody is fully focused but of course, there is extra energy in the group when you know you've done an almost perfect [season]," he added.

"The confidence is great because we know how the league can end, is up to us. That gives us confidence and great energy in the training sessions, of course.

"The sun is shining in Manchester also so that gives us extra energy!"
