Interesting thoughts in this. A thought I had after our first goal when play got stopped was that it kills our momentum and stopped us doing a classic Renee era two quick goals. I wonder if teams will try that as a tactic more.

We get it, every team gets it. Some things just happen

The number of goals scored, the runs we have had and the victories in past difficult fixtures woulds indicate yes.

I also wonder whether we had too much fear about conceding possession because the city quality and it has made us a little afraid to shoot until the entire City team were in the box.

@tim-stillman.bsky.social I cannot lie, I'm feeling a bit nervous

Yes. The impatience I do understand given the sometimes obvious mistakes and the lack of support shown but a lot in power

A very good article. A critical part of this is listening to the fans. I have a good feeling about this. Everton can be the next Arsenal.

6,473 at Goodison Park for Everton Women yesterday. Nearly 6x average of WPH. Some expect Everton (& the wider game) to have all the answers now or it's a hoax. Goodison is a reminder that ambition & patience are not mutually exclusive. This is a work in progress.

Everton Women at Goodison Park: Patience and ambition are not mutually exclusive

A key theme to take from Everton Women's first game at Goodison Park is that the women's game is still a work in progress

Just heard your predictor for the WSL winner on the pod - reminiscent of your UWCL prediction. Very clever.

This.

There’s some players where even when you can rationalize a reason for the move, it still feels like you’re getting stabbed in the heart by the prospect of it and this is that one for me. Such an underrated backbone to this team for so long and an absolutely lovely person on top of it.

Understand that Juventus are interested in signing Lia Walti from Arsenal, full story 👇

I was chatting with a friend about judging the POTT better. It ended up being a combo of having impact every minute on the pitch, influencing the impact of a match the most and the performances that you can't forget. For me, I will never forget Williamson's performance in the UWCL final.

I'm hearing @robyniocowen.bsky.social comms from the winning moment everywhere. It's genius. How does she find the perfect words for a moment of history every time.

Han Solo @hansolo.bsky.social · Jul 29

Cannot be said enough

Tim Stillman ⭐️⭐️ @tim-stillman.bsky.social · Jul 28

Leah Williamson is in that phase of her career that a lot of great players go through when their consistency just washes over people and they miss it. Usually when the great players like this get to about 33 and people can see the end they get a ‘grand old’ halo. But she is one of the greats.

Han Solo @hansolo.bsky.social · Jul 28

Is Michelle at a level now where she needs to stay in the elite environment of Arsenal, similar to LJ at Chelsea, to reach that next level?

Han Solo @hansolo.bsky.social · Jul 27

I pray that this tweet doesn't deserve a green tick later.

Han Solo @hansolo.bsky.social · Jul 26

Love your pod prediction. I see what you are doing. Smart.

Han Solo @hansolo.bsky.social · Jul 26

Michelle has improved so much and so quickly being in the elite England setup. Is Michelle so good that staying with Arsenal will make her develop faster, akin to LJ at Chelsea?

Han Solo @hansolo.bsky.social · Jul 23

I don't know anymore. She is a hemp, an LJ. And the growth in her game in the last few months has been extensive. I think she needs to be in an elite environment to do that. We have the number of competitions to facilitate game time for her.

Han Solo @hansolo.bsky.social · Jul 22

We've seen this kind of frustrating games before with arsenal in past times. We need some impact subs to change it.

Han Solo @hansolo.bsky.social · Jul 21

I have a vision and it's a Leah lotte CB partnership for England and Arsenal

Han Solo @hansolo.bsky.social · Jul 21

An insightful read.

I wrote something about Lotte Wubben-Moy and what next season might hold for her after she made a highly considered and informed decision to sign a new contract in April 👇🏻🔴⚪️
