Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Our girls were back in action this weekend after returning from the international break, and I was a bit worried that all the travelling and the minutes played across the globe would have a negative impact on our performance. Bar a period of ten minutes or so, it wasn’t the case. […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! While most of our girls are busy with their national teams around the world, allow me to take a moment to rewind the tape and go back to the turbulent days that led to Jonas Eidevall’s resignation from his head coach role for the Arsenal Women team, in October. The Swede […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! We had to wait until the very last few minutes, but we made it to the quarterfinals of the UWLC! A late, late strike from Lina Hurtig (more on her later) sunk Juventus and put us through the knock-out phase for the second time in three seasons. It took patience and […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Well, well…we are getting used to this, aren’t we? Another game, another win and another dominant display from our girls, who made light work of Spurs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Early goals from Alessia Russo and Frida Maanum set the tone before super-sub Stina Blackstenius added a third in the […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! I know it’s been a very long time but what I time to get back writing the Arsenal Women Journal! After the most depressing of times, with a head coach leaving, the team drifting away form the title challenge and an overall write-it-off-already-and-plan-for-2026 feeling, the four-nil thumping of Juventus at theirs […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! This week’s journal is a matter of seeing our glass half-empty or half-full. The narrow loss to Häcken was frustrating, especially if we consider the fair amount of back luck that went with it, while the league opener against Manchester City had us through all sorts of emotions and could have […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! This week’s Journal is very different from any other one, as I will take you all for a walk and introduce to you every single player included in the first team for season 2024/25! Veterans, new arrivals, mainstays, up-and-coming stars…we have plenty of great profiles in our squad, so let’s go. […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! There’s no smoke without fire, they say. On Saturday night, at Meadow Park, we should have seen a giant wildfire, but we ended up with a tiny campfire, instead. The team created so many chances and was so dominant that the one-nil scoresheet felt somehow disappointing. We are through, though, and […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! The first hurdle has been cleared, in quite an emphatic way, too. The six-nil thrashing of Rangers allows our girls to move into the final of the first qualifying round of the UWCL, who will now face Rosenborg on Saturday, at Meadow Park. The Gunners showed real purpose and grit against […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Arsenal Women finished their first-ever US tour with a bitter although deserved defeat against rivals Chelsea, courtesy of a debut goal from Sandy Baltimore. This being a friendly match, I wouldn’t read too much into it, but the post-game words from Jonas Eidevall and the fact that we will play our […]
