A month or two ago you mentioned on the podcast that you’re not sure you would renew Renée’s contract yet… still of the same opinion after this block or would you want to see continued improvement against better competition?

Familiar with how PAs work in US sports but didn’t know if there was something similar involved with WSL.

Very random one but does the WSL have a player’s association/union? If so, what kind of voice or power do they have with WSL football? It seems like the league has gotten a number of things wrong this year so curious how much input players have!

Do you think part of the issue this season is that Arsenal has been too predictable in both tactics and substitutes? Is that a product of Slegers trying to take emotion out of decisions?

At times it has felt like the way we play doesn’t maximize the skills/talents of enough of our players at the same time… how would you change it up to make them more effective?
Or do we just need 1 or 2 different types of players than we currently have to help unlock the whole team?

Know Slegers has said before her subs are often pre planned to avoid emotion but feel like that results in making subs that don’t factor in the reality of the current game state. Leaves the result to random chance if subs are wrong/right. Seems like it blew up in their face last night as a result.

Great article! It is frustrating to watch… how can a team that’s so good also be this bad? And so frequently this bad?

Why oh why would they not put Cooney-Cross in for Pelova??

Ahh that is a huge bummer for her and the team!

Were we too predictable to start yesterday and maybe in general? Seemed clear Chelsea knew we had used Leicester as “practice” and switched up their look based on that. Should we use different formations at times based on matchup or is consistency in that key to improving overall consistency?

Hinds does offer something a little different and Katie maybe hasn’t been able to be at her creative best for Arsenal yet this year but as seen by her performances for Ireland she still has plenty to give! So how do we maximize that talent/skill for Arsenal?

Thoughts on the front four today? Seemed to click quite well and work to everyone’s strengths, think it can work against the top teams or an outlier to what Leicester gave us?

What is biggest thing Arsenal need to tweak to get back to scoring goals in abundance? Personnel, mindset, tactics, something else?
And predictions for results in November block?! It’s a big one!!

The attack felt a bit stale yesterday… what do you attribute that to? Felt like the game was crying out for KCC to break lines, etc. especially in 2nd half. Know that maybe would’ve compromised defense but maybe worth the risk?

Glad someone asked but not much of an answer! 😅 Although didn’t expect her to say much else I suppose!
