Welcome to a brand new episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, the number one podcast about Arsenal Women.
Tim, Pippa and Alex get together for the October mailbag edition of the Arsenal Women Arsecast. The panel answer questions on the midfield- specifically Kim Little’s best position and who is the preferred choice as the number six. They also ponder how far the Gunners can go in the Champions League and the lessons learned from the chastening defeat to Barcelona. Attention also turns to the addition of Gary Lewin to the backroom staff and other positive changes behind the scenes, as well as some of the challenges and improvements to come as the season progresses.

Glad I was finally able to run this. Much interest in the fluidity and potential rotation of our midfielders. I’m keen to see Kim as far forward as possible creating and scoring goals.
Interesting question in your podcast, how can we be even better? I’m no expert, just a layman, and we’re already very good, but I notice how players are sometimes hesitant to pass to the nearest open outlet. Understandable, as there would be markers expecting that pass, and you don’t want to get pressed and lose the ball. If you can dribble a bit and someone free elsewhere it’s safe, and it works against the WSL teams in the games I’ve seen so far. But against the best teams in the world, they press you hard and in the short time… Read more »
