@MHPengwingz and of course she scores the equalizer. LOL
Is it just me, or does Pelova look off it today? Been pushed off the ball a couple of times and/or had poor touch.
@nuggsy @Astrealix Exactly. These muppets don't seem to understand that it could have just as easily happened to our supporters.
PSA for those who were wondering where the gooner walrus went: https://mastodon.social/@poorlydrawnarsenal/112135860741235394
@Astrealix @sensiblepuffin yep, remember Ben White has been nursing a knee problem all season
@Astrealix Daphne van Domselaar out for the rest of the season due to surgery on a hip injury 🤔
@Astrealix they wore blue and we wore white the last time we played them FFS. This smells like mind games from Hayes.
@Astrealix commentator here just said there was a kit clash. How I have no idea.
@OlPatchy2Eyes @Wengerite nobody (unless they're a bell end) calls it that for obvious reasons.
@Astrealix Conti Cup final (potentially against Man City Women) scheduled immediately before the men's PL match against City 😩
@Astrealix Jonas' wardrobe choices at Meadow Park vs Emirates continue to amuse me.
@Astrealix I almost feel sorry for Jordan being on the receiving end of this
@Astrealix hoping we can get six. For the culture.
@Astrealix yeah, with such a stacked squad, it would be a let down not to win any silverware this season.
@AFC1886VCC @Astrealix exactly. Win the league in it and it'll become a cult classic.
@Astrealix For your amusement: https://pubeurope.com/@eucup/112039506937354767
@Astrealix @raumdeuter I just hope we get out unscathed at this point.
@Wengerite @Astrealix yeah, even the BBC are in on it.
Completely ignoring that it's a team sport.
@Astrealix appreciate that you're still keeping the place going.
Expected Own Goals (Podcast) - "Arsenal Turn Chelsea to Cannon Fodder in the WSL Game of the Season"
New to me podcast on women's football covers Arsenal's thrashing of Chelsea over the weekend. Discussion of the match starts at the 8 minute mark.
BBC - Arsenal's Lia Walti says club have 'built something huge with fans'
Love to see it:
"We've had every away game sold out so far this season I think which shows how much the club is doing all the right things to help the women's game grow"
Arseblog - an in-depth look at Arsenal Women's lack of ethnic diversity
This is a good long read on the issues around diversity in Women's football in England, and puts the recent furor over the Arsenal squad photo in context. I am once again in awe of Alex Scott for how she's managed to thrive in spite of the barriers she's had to push past.
Catsenal - set pieces and attacking strategy vs Burnley
Good breakdown of the set piece strategy for the game vs Burnley from the animated Korean cat
Catsenal - "unpredictable tactics vs Sheffield Utd"
Another good breakdown by the animated cat on the tactics employed by Arsenal last week.
Detailed as always, so slowing down playback might be a good idea.
Analysis: Why have Arsenal Women struggled against deep defensive blocks this season?
From Tim Stillman: "The technical instability at centre-half and number 10 has made Arsenal less convincing in the exact area opposing defences have clogged up and targeted. This has meant a high number of crosses, with Arsenal averaging 35.3 per game so far this season, compared to 24.4 last season."
Guardian - Aaron Ramsdale - "I am suffering and hurting"
I do feel bad for him, and hope he gets to play a Champions League game at the very least.
@gunners Catsenal - tactical analysis of the win against Man City
This is so detailed and dense I had to slow down playback speed and mute audio 😂 Note: Closed captions required unless you understand Korean
@arsenalwfc Alex Scott will be the first female hero in EA FC 24
I don't play FIFA/EA FC, but this is cool to see: https://www.eurogamer.net/here-are-the-first-five-heroes-revealed-in-ea-sports-fc-24
@arsenalwfc Guardian: Alessia Russo’s firepower can shoot ambitious Arsenal to next level
I like this bit of shade on Utd:
"It is a move that has called into question United’s aptitude in contract negotiations and their ability to retain the best players."
I used to find bugs in "enterprise" software. Now retired and spend my time wondering if Arsenal are going to win the league.
