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, and welcome to the latest episode of the Arsenal Women Journal!Today’s episode is supposed to be a very happy one, but for various reasons I can’t feel like celebrating. Sure, beating Chelsea and Emma Hayes always tastes very sweet and so does bringing home another piece of silverware, but some very […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! It took us way too long, but finally we got our first clean sheet in the league. That, on level with Beth Mead starting her first league game in a year, is probably the ultimate take away from the convincing three-nil win at Brighton. While wins got us much closer […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Some goals are not just goals, they are something more than the ball hitting the back of the net. There are circumstances when scoring a goal can change the whole narrative for a player, or for a team. Sometimes for both. Cloé Lacasse last gasp wonder strike against Manchester United […]
Champions League, here we come! The narrow home win against Leicester, followed by the empathic four-nil thumping of a valiant Brighton team and coupled with the unexpected Manchester City loss against Liverpool, propelled us to the third place, the last one that gives access to the European’s top competition. Once again, I want to hail […]
Another thumping win in a North London Derby, what a delight! A brace from Caitlin Foord and a goal apiece from captain Kim Little and Frida Maanum painted north London red once again, propelling the team much closer to the top of the table. We might have moved from fourth to…fourth but we made a […]
“We cruised to victory against Reading…” reads the Arsenal website, in the aftermath of our thumping four-nil win against the Royals, at Meadow Park.Goals from Kim Little, Frida Maanum and Leah Williamson, as well as an own-goal from Emma Mukandi, sealed our third consecutive win in the league and helped closing the gap with the […]
Another game against Chelsea, another hurtful result.Once again, we are left ruing the missed chances, the lack of composure in front of goal. Chelsea took their chances while we didn’t and that, combined with some poor defending, cut our FA Cup journey very short. Jonas Eidevall reverted to a back four, with Liä Walti and […]
It’s fair to say that the players did their best to ensure we would all have a nice winter break: the thumping of Zurich in Schaffhausen was embellished with some truly spectacular goals and skills, with Frida Maanum’s delicate free kick scooping the virtual goal of the night award. The Norwegian wonderkid, who is truly […]
It was a very even game, at the Emirates Stadium, and Lyon emerged as winners thanks to an own goal scored by Frida Maanum just before half-time. Officiating has been – once again – very poor as the goal should have been disallowed for a clear offside: Malard might have not touched the ball, but […]
