Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! It’s been a while since we last spoke, and Arsenal built on their all-important win against Real Madrid with two very narrow but equally important results against Liverpool in the WSL, and against Twente in the UWCL. Both performances were somehow unconvincing, and the scoreline was much closer than it should […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! The Gunners didn’t win a must-win game, and that’s pretty much it. After throwing away a two-goals lead in Munich, Arsenal Women couldn’t break down Tottenham at Brisbane Road and find now themselves eight points off the top spot – which means that their title challenge is over. As sad as […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Arsenal Women had to win, and they won. After a three-games winless run in the WSL that saw the team fall to fifth, our girls overcame a valiant Brighton at the Emirates Stadium and got back on track, although they are still sitting in fifth place in the table.

All the promises of the brave run-in both in the […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Before getting back to the North London Derby played at a sold-out Emirates Stadium, I would like to take a minute to celebrate getting into a second consecutive Conti Cup final. I know it is the “minor” trophy in the range of silverware we were aiming for, when the season […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Who would have dreamt of such a big win? The way our team destroyed league leaders Chelsea was simply amazing and beyond my wildest dreams. The impact of this win is reminiscent of Jonas Eidevall’s first game in charge, against the same opponent, in the same stadium: after years of […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Double dose of AWFC content this week, as our girls played against Bristol City in the Conti Cup and then against Leicester City in the Women’s Super League.Double dose, double delight as we came up on the winning side on both occasions.
