    Millie Bright has done it so often. Credit to Chelsea, even to go this far, they knew that the league was wrapped up a few weeks ago and to go on and get those wins and go invincible throughout the season is a great achievement for the girls.

    It's so impressive. They're just relentless and they just seem like they're uncatchable. There's 12 points difference between second, it's a huge margin.

    Who's going to chase them? Who's going to catch them? I'm not sure.

    That mentality is absolutely phenomenal to win six in a row.

    On if records or titles mean more: "I think we know how hard it is to get it every time. We had won for so many years in a row but we know how hard it is to do so we don't take it for granted at all. That is why I am super proud of the girls. At the start of the season we all start at the same point and we earn it."

    "We regrouped after the Villa game, they were both quick turnarounds so it was move on and reflect. We conceded too many goals. We did that again too maybe we have to do that again today but we scored more. I'm glad we got the win today but we need to shut up shop.

    "I thought I had to score in the league this year. It was a great ball from Chloe [Kelly] and I took it ion the snap shot.

    "The team has changed a little bit throughout the year. Mariona [Caldentey] has come into the midfield more instead go the lft. She is more attacking and we needed to balance the team.

    "The most important thing is to communicate and make sure you're fluid. When we do that well, we're at our best.

    "That is part of our game, we are one of the teams that are in the press the most. Against Barcelona, they are one of the best teams in the world in the world so we'll have to take that into consideration."

    We'll bring you all of the rest of the reaction as we get it.

    There might be a slight delay. Lucy Bronze is currently leading a rendition of Take Me Home, Country Roads by John Denver.

    Understandably, the players are spending as much time as possible celebrating.

    Chelsea forward Aggie Beever-Jones speaking to Sky Sports: "I don't think I have the words right now. I'm absolutely delighted. Today showed immense pride in Chelsea, we never give up. I am just happy we can celebrate a bit tonight and have fun.

    "I think for me I don't know what it is about Liverpool, I like playing against them. for me I always felt a goal was coming. If I'm honest I said to Keira at half time that I should have shot a few times and my end product wasn't so good today. Sometimes i feel like I only need one chance. The ball came and I remember thinking, "This is it." I didn't really know what to do with myself, I was buzzing.

    "It has been a long season and we are super happy."

    The way she has navigated this with so much poise and class has been incredible.

    Normally when you see Bompastor in the technical area, there is no ranting or raving and she is carefully planning. They are going to be a force to be reckoned with.

    Bring something to this club has never been.

    This is what you live for. To have these moments.

    Ellen White
    Former England striker on BBC Two

    I think Renee Slegers will be delighted with the fact her team have come back after losing two games on the bounce, scoring a lot of goals.

    She'll be disappointed to concede but they have that winning mentality, grit, determination and clinical edge and I think they can take that to the Champions League final.
