🎙️ Kim Little: "Everyone on the pitch did that [their job] tonight. Maybe we didn't have the flow in the attack that we had in the first game (Juventus 0-4 Arsenal) but we were defensively solid and then we made the substitutes and they made the difference." [UEFA]

🎙️ Catley: "We came into this game wanting nothing but three points, so to get that done after what happened here last year was important for us. It was definitely spoken about, but every time we play this fixture, it's important, and we want to get the win. So it's good that we got it." [Optus]

🎙️ Lotte: "It's nice to be back but I think more importantly to be able to cap off a big win. We've had an exhausting last few weeks and it's a credit to everyone's physical/emotional capabilities. The fact that we can get into a NLD and win like that is a credit to everyone." (Arsenal.com)

🎙️ Slegers post-match: "It's the players. We are stepping up as a staff as well. We try to facilitate, but the effort and work they put in is on them. I want to give credit to the players again." [BBC]

🎙️ Russo post-match, when asked about what has changed under Renee Slegers:

"We are a little bit more confident. Things don't change overnight. She has allowed us a little bit of freedom up there and each game is getting better and better. It's been good to get a bit of consistency." [BBC]

🎙️ Russo post-match: "Today was massive. Not only is it another step in the league and the journey we are on but it's a derby. When you come to the club you know the standards and this is one of them. We knew what it [defeat] felt like and wanted to put it right." [BBC]
November 16, 2024 at 3:59 PM
Leah Williamson: "We are probably under the highest pressure because we haven't started how we needed to, so every game is a must-win game. Yet it feels very calm. Ultimately we go out every week to be better than the week before. We are working really hard."

🗣️ Jen Beattie: "North London derbies were the games that you really felt the energy even more so from the fans, because of the history of the clubs coming from the men’s side. That is where it came from and I loved that whole one club mentality." [Women's Football Weekly]

🎙️ Slegers on Mariona's return to the starting XI: "She's a fantastic player. The way she plays/trains, her mindset, she wants to get all the details right. How good she is on the ball, the way she works off the ball, there are so many things to it. We are really happy she is fit again." [BBC]

🎙️ Vilahamn: "If we win tomorrow they have a big, big problem in the league. This is a good opportunity to play against them because and they still have an interim coach and they still are in the phase where they need to chase teams in the table. I think being the underdog can be good for us." #NLD
