Fantastic day today for the NLD

🔝 Russo with another top performance causing spurs backline lots of problems
🤝 The best I’ve seen the Walti and KCC midfield pairing
🪄 Mariona continues to pull the strings
🔥 Chloe Kelly having a really positive 30 minute stint creating 4 chances
🚀 Rocket from Foxy

Chelsea’s spending in this window & recruitment surely needs to make other teams in the WSL step up, otherwise I can’t see any club coming close to beating them. Competitiveness of the league is now at question because of this which is a shame.

Pretty spot on this.

This week’s Arsenal Women Newsletter. Arsenal are behind Chelsea and it hurts. The gap is not large, but it’s there. The squad is big but Chelsea’s is bigger. Chelsea have set a bar and it is up to Arsenal to reach and surpass it 👇🔴⚪️
Arsenal are behind Chelsea and it hurts
In the build-up to yesterday’s London derby at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea deployed a stadium DJ and some excitable stadium announcers pitchside to ramp up the atmosphere. Last season, after a 30 minute ...

Reflections on yesterdays game:
- Kyra played really well, especially in the first half
- Catley & Little exceptional - both defensively brilliant
- Found our forward play never really got going, particularly in the second half
- Think our lack of depth & physicality was exposed against Chelsea

Some fair points made in this article that I think Arsenal Women as club need to think about.

Mariona is a different class and took the team to a different level tonight. 2 assists and a goal from her. Russo another G/A contribution. Slegers ball is a joy. #AWFC #ArsenalWomen

WHAT A GAME!!!

A tale of two halves, first half we were not at our best but the substitutes made all the difference in the second half we looked like a different team and got the flippin win!!!

So gutting to not be able to go to the game tonight due to cancelled trains. Hope this hasn’t affected too many others this evening!

Brighton Away for Arsenal’s Quarter Final Fixture in the Subway Women’s League Cup.

Not a bad fixture at all.

Other juicy fixtures, Manchester Derby and only Championship team take on Chelsea away!

We secured the 3 points, but our usual fluid passing wasn't there today. Some players looked fatigued. Shoutout to our centrebacks, especially Catley, for holding strong, and Russo for maintaining her form. Here's to hoping we sharpen up for Bayern 🙏

4-0 win today 💪

Considering the fight Villa have had against the other top teams, we didn’t really give them a sniff.

Takeaways from today:
- Leah outstanding & passing top tier
- Should Caldentey play in the 6/8 more often?
- Russo all round solid with goals to match
- KCC our best corner taker

Funnily enough, Sarina played this kind of formation yesterday in the friendly against Switzerland. With the amount of centre backs we have, it makes sense. I thought we looked decent in the first half, but struggled to maintain control in the second. Still a lot of work to be done for the euros 😬
Thoughts on the England v USA game

Backline much better & balanced with Greenwood there, thought she was one of our better players today. Earps doing what she does best again and proving why she’s no.1. Looked lost in possession & in our attack. I still wonder if we need to go back to a 5-3-2.

Not our best performance, again, struggling against a low block and lack of movement and pace at times. But the difference is we’ve got the job done and subs making the difference 💪
Champions League quarter finalists. 💫🥳
