Welcome to a brand new episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, the number one podcast about Arsenal Women.
In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie talk about Arsenal’s 1-0 win over Leicester at the King Power. Tim and Jamie discuss a rotated starting line-up, how much the packed early season schedule contributed to a leggy performance, whether the game can be taken in isolation or whether concerns about the attack in particular persist and the performances of Daphne van Domselaar, Alessia Russo, the midfield partnership of Lia Walti and Kyra Cooney-Cross, defensive injuries and a lack of creativity without Mariona and Kafaji starting the game.

I feel sorry for Ke Kuhl missing out so far but I think she is a talented footballer who doesn’t have a future at Arsenal. Not just that there are players ahead of her, but her comparative lack of physicality makes her an odd fit for our midfield.
Yes, I think we just don’t know what she is. In a ‘two 8s’ system I think she would be ok but that isn’t really what Arsenal do.
Very interesting discussion that raises several questions. What is the future of our midfield? With the return of Victoria Pelova plus the possible (probable?) acquisition of Keira Walsh, I’d see us being overloaded there for another season (the replacement of Kim and Lia isn’t going to happen immediately, nor should it). I therefore agree that Ke needs to find a new club. Others may disagree but if Walsh arrives and Vic regains full fitness, I have my doubts about KCC. Regarding Ke’s situation, it does make me think of the necessity of having the physical strength to hold off challenges.… Read more »
