Sonia Bompastor: Chelsea's new manager on replacing Emma Hayes & how to stop Man City's Bunny Shaw

Chelsea's New Boss on Replacing Emma Hayes

Chelsea have announced the appointment of Sonia Bompastor as their new manager following the departure of Emma Hayes. Bompastor, 42, has been in charge of Lyon since 2016 and has won seven Division 1 Féminine titles and two Women's Champions League titles with the club. She is also a former France international and played for Lyon for 10 years.

Replacing Hayes will be a difficult task, as the Englishwoman led Chelsea to five league titles, two FA Cups and two Champions League titles during her nine-year reign. However, Bompastor is confident that she can continue Hayes' success and make Chelsea a dominant force in women's football once again.

How to Stop Man City's Bunny Shaw

One of the biggest challenges that Bompastor will face as Chelsea manager is how to stop Manchester City's Bunny Shaw. The Jamaican forward has been in sensational form this season, scoring 19 goals in 16 league games. She is a clinical finisher and is very good at using her strength to hold off defenders.

There are a few ways that Bompastor can try to stop Shaw. One is to play a high defensive line and press City high up the pitch. This will make it difficult for Shaw to get into dangerous positions and will force her to play with her back to goal.

Another option is to double-mark Shaw. This will involve assigning two players to mark her at all times. This will make it difficult for Shaw to get involved in the game and will reduce her chances of scoring.
