Why the Subway Players Cup should be a priority for Liverpool For the first time ever, the League Cup will not feature England's UEFA competition representatives.

Thus, last season's top three in the WSL, Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea, are not featuring in the Subway Players Cup, which really opens it up for the rest of the field. Meantime, they have also been FA Cup winners in 13 of the last 14 seasons, with Manchester United's triumph over Tottenham in 2024 the sole exception.
