‘Can we do this down the park?’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective I have never played for the quadruple. I have never played in front of 60,000. I have never plated for a team where millions are watching and hoping. I have never played under their expectation. None of my coaches come close […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! The winter break is still on, but the Arsenal world doesn’t stop. A couple of days ago, the Club announced the signing of Swedish right-back Smilla Holmberg from Hammarby IF to land one of the most exciting prospects in European football. The 19yo defender, who is already a full international and […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! The team waved goodbye to 2025 in style, with three consecutive away wins against Everton in the WSL, OH Leuvenin the UWCL and Crystal Palace in the league cup. More goods news came from the treatment room, which is finally getting (rather) empty now that Leah Williamson and Kim Little are […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! I purposedly waited before writing about our draw against Chelsea at home, because I feared my writing would be negatively impacted by the way the match ended and the fact that emotions were very high when the final whistle was blown. The result means that Arsenal Women have likely missed the […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! The game was lost, then won, then almost thrown away, moments before full-time. Being an Arsenal fan is unhealthy, isn’t it?

Liverpool go 11 points clear and the old ‘bottle job’ quotes come out. City arrived at the bar early to get a good seat, got drunk by 8pm and were last seen throwing up in the toilets. United, going through yet another divorce, came in to see if they could still hang with the cool […]
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! 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! 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 […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Arsenal Women played their first friendly match of their US tour and defeated hosts Washington Spirit, who currently sit third in the NWSL table after the first half of the season. Given the difference in fitness levels, the performance on show from Jonas Eidevall’s player was very encouraging, although the hosts […]
