Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! It’s been three weeks since we spoke, and during that time our girls stomped on both Bristol City and Leicester at home with an overall score of 8-0 and both Beth Mead and Alessia Russo catching fire in front of goal.

The Arsenal Women Journal – Curtain! Jonas Eidevall and Arsenal’s disappointing season thoroughly dissected [CHE 3-1 ARS]
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 […]
The Arsenal Women Journal – Is the title gone for good? [LIV 0-2 ARS, WHU 2-1 ARS]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Well, well – this wasn’t meant to be a double episode of the Arsenal Women Journal, but I caught a big cold that kept me in bed for a week. The moment I take my eyes off the team, we unexpectedly lose to West Ham and basically throw away the […]
The Arsenal Women Journal – Katie the Hero while Viv is back
Good evening Arsenal Women aficionados! Not all heroes wear a cape, they said, but the Club should start considering launching a new fashion range with capes branded with Katie McCabe and her number 15.

The Summer Diaries – Ilestedt, Lacasse, Russo and more. (An Arsenal Women special.)
Hello Arsenal Women aficionados! The traditional Arsenal Women Journal might well be on holidays mode but that’s no reason to rest. Last week I was stating the obvious when I said that the Arsenal would have a very busy summer ahead of them, but what was less obvious was how quickly they would start bringing […]
Miedema – The longest minute (Arsenal Women’s Journal)
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 […]
Versatile McCabe the solution amid Injury crisis as Arsenal Women keep pace – Arsenal Women’s Journal
It could have been easier. It should have been easier. We held on to the goal scored by Vivianne Miedema and got a truly deserved win, but Everton had two huge chances to equalize and snatch a very unlikely point at Meadow Park. Although we cannot prevent opponents from having chances to score, we ought […]

Winning at home to West Ham might not be the fondest memory some of the die-hard Arsenal Women’s fans have but it was very special to me, as it was the first Arsenal Women game I ever attended. Despite arriving late to Meadow Park (!) I didn’t miss much and could see the awful mix-up […]
