Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Well, we all knew this would happen, eventually, but I would have preferred for it to happen at another time and – most importantly – at another place. Guro Reiten’s late penalty at Stamford Bridge ended Renée Slegers’ unbeaten start and, most crucially, took any sense of jeopardy away from the […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! What a start for our new permanent coach! We had to wait three whole months to finally land our main target, but it was definitely worth the wait, wasn’t it? The club took its time and Renée Slegers held the fort outstandingly while the recruitment process was conducted, but we finally […]
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! 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! 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! 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 […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Our dear Arsenal Women team didn’t take the pitch this weekend, yet I felt the urge to put together this blog because 1) Tottenham were battered in the FA Cup final and 2) the club shocked the women’s footballing world with two massive announcements in the space of 24 hours. […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Today’s Arsenal Women Journal will be slightly different from the usual ones. I’ll be 100% honest with you, I didn’t want to write at all after the humbling 1-3 defeat at Stamford Bridge that ended any remote dream of breaking Chelsea dominance on the WSL. If anyone has a chance […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Remember when I wrote about the new dawn for the Arsenal Women’s season? Well, the sun is finally out. Katie McCabe and Alessia Russo late goals gave us a well-deserved win against Aston Villa and pushed away all the clouds that were casting shadows over the Emirates Stadium, on Sunday. […]
