Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados!Another double episode of your favourite Arsenal Women blog this week, as Jonas Eidevall’s team first grabbed a last-minute win at Southampton, in the Conti Cup group stage, then swept away West Ham at Meadow Park, in the WSL. It means we’ve now won eight consecutive games in all competitions and […]
Something’s wrong, but something’s right An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective Admission time. I have a big one. An admission, I mean. I have an excuse for this. I was about 7, I think. I hope anyway. My memory is that I preferred watching ice dancing to football when I was young. My admission didn’t […]
It is a big occasion when high-flying Arsenal travels to the modest surroundings of Luton Town, who will dream of a particular result under the lights. Bedfordshire receives the joint-second team on the log as Luton Town hosts Arsenal for a match that will attract those who love an underdog story. This represents the first-ever […]
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 […]

In this edition we look back on Saturday’s clash against Burnley at the Emirates. HIGHLIGHT Paul Hepker: Leo Trossard’s courage and commitment. He surely has to start every game. So consistent. Dave Seager: Zinchenko’s best game of the season and my MOTM. Does this give Arteta a new option? (See headlight) Steve Wellman: Zinny’s expertly […]
A glimpse of the mountain top An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective I wonder how many goals Arsenal have scored this season that were not scored by our striker. I never really research stats, but here goes. I’ll be right back. Ok, got it. We’ve scored 37 in all competitions and 26 were scored […]
