Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Arsenal Women made a light work of WSL strugglers Leicester City, who were beaten 5-1 at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night. With the scoreline already 3-0 before the half-hour mark, there was little doubt that Renée Sleger’s team would take the three points and prepare in the best possible way […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! The first question after the 4-0 win against Liverpool is simple: how could we lose to this very same side in the FA Cup quarter-final? I don’t mean to be disrespectful towards Liverpool, of course, but the difference between the two games is quite appalling. Were we a bit too confident […]
The Arsenal Women Journal – A First Major Setback for Renée [ARS 0-1 LIV] Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! I must say, I didn’t expect that result. Or, to be more accurate, I could have expected Liverpool to beat us thanks to a lucky shot, or even an own goal, but only in a scenario where […]
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!

Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! A win is a win and a prestigious away win to current league leaders – which we hadn’t defeated at their place in seven years – is even more meaningful. Yet, at the back of my head, a little voice is asking “was it truly necessary?” Of course, I am […]
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! The Arsenal Women team is finally back, after the winter break. There is so much to unpack, since we last spoke, that I’m afraid this will become a long read – but stick with me, please. A month ago, when I reported about the North London Derby defeat at the […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados!The 2023/24 season is finally – or already – underway. Earlier this week, in Sweden, Jonas Eidevall’s team comfortably beat hosts Linköping three-nil to advance to the final of the UEFA Women’s Champions League first qualifying round, which consists of a mini-tournament where the champions of leagues other than the top-3 […]
Hello Arsenal Women aficionados!The traditional Arsenal Women Journal might well be on holidays mode but that’s no reason to rest. The World Cup is over, England suffered a hurting defeat against a valiant, well-organized Spain team and could not achieve the historical feat of holding both the European and World crown. Although Lotte Wubben-Moy and […]
