Well done girls
Ha ha ha! Sp*rs. Ha Ha! The absolute definition of mediocre.
And that’s to take nothing away from the Arsenal, who are magnificent under Renee.
I think calling them mediocre is being too kind. They started the game as if they meant business, that lasted about 4 minutes until they signalled the retreat and never threatened again.
5-0 despite their goalie’s heroics….
I think some of us are being unfair to Stina Blackstenius. If we got rid of her, we’d struggle to replace her. She is clumsy, has questionable technique and yet somehow she scores – in away games, big games, cup finals – games when Russo often does not. Russo is a brilliant all-round football player but not more lethal in front of goal than Stina. Looking at Russo’s skills map, it reminded me of nothing so much as Kim Little’s from several years ago – excellent in all departments, no obvious weaknesses. And yet if you look at chances taken/missed,… Read more »
Brilliant Analysis, Ms Fun Gunner – pretty much agree with all of it.
Cheers, Mr H!
Good piece but on Russo, she is way above the player we saw at the end of last year, beginning of this. She and Stina offer different problems for any defence but for me, Russo is becoming the striker we have wanted when we signed her.
Mead will not choose to leave this club.
😂 She is definitely clumsy but we love her!!
Enjoyed the cast and to putting a voice to the Gibson name. With Renee in charge we seem to have a harmonious squad who happen to be playing well. There are players who are 25-30% or more better than 5 months ago and Renee has to take the credit for that transformation. Finally welcome to the Icon that is Chloe Kelly who deserves at least some chance to prove how good she is. For my money I hope she signs permanantly in the Summer.
I think the point about Chloe Kelly commercially is an excellent one and very true, she will sell shirts. Also she very nearly scored from the left, l had a birds eye view low down in block 3.
Regarding Kim exstending her contract, l dont see why anyone would have a problem with this, as you say she is one of the best players in her position in the world all be it at 35. We need players like her around the squad still
Also, l intended to buy Freddie’s fanzine mag but by the time l got back from having coffee they’d all gone 🙁
