Welcome to a brand new episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, the number one podcast about Arsenal Women.
In this edition of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie go back over the UWCL qualifying victories over Rangers and Rosenborg last week, the performances of Mariona Caldentey, as well as Laia Codina and Kyra Cooney-Cross and whether it will be difficult to dislodge them from the team, Tim and Jamie also look ahead to the next qualifying round against Hacken. Then there are listener questions about low defensive blocks and Arsenal’s finishing, team selection and whether Arsenal will add before Friday’s WSL transfer deadline.
