But the growth there continues to be in the WSL compared to a lot of other leagues.

And she obviously is still young.

She has ambition.

Arsenal are always going to be competing.

This year, it seems like a bit of a stretch, but also it will be a great move for Arsenal because as much as we would like it, Kim Little can't play forever.

So there might be kind of thoughts of,

a transition there just in that midfield area we haven't quite seen someone who is ready to take over from Kim Little yet but if you get someone with you know a couple of Euros under their belt that would be a pretty good start for Arsenal if that's the way they're thinking it would be a good signing for you know any of the WSL teams to be fair but in terms of style of play I do think Arsenal would be a good fit for

Yeah, they did.

I mean, we're all looking forward to this game because we're looking at that fight for Champions League and how that's going to go.

Obviously, Arsenal are pipping that at the moment because United, you know, United now before this game had two draws, one win, two losses.

not in a great run of form so for United especially going to play her down that is absolutely a point gained and when you consider the possession stats and it's mad like you're right in saying it was a bit of a dull affair Arsenal had you know if you look at the stats they had 25

shots but a lot of them really came to nothing they were six on target and you could probably pick out like you say Tullis Joyce she probably did two or three really good saves but when you have that many shots and your shots on target and your conversion rate is not matching up there is something wrong and obviously Renee Slaggers after the match she was happy that they're having more shots but

they she was saying that they need to work on their belief and like striker is it's a tough position usually it is um the most confident player on the team that does play up front but maybe that's just telling that there is a lack of confidence there um at the minute you know we saw caldente you know swiping at things that she never usually would you know she's usually so composed um obviously rusa worked really really hard but um

She didn't really get into the positions that she needed to really trouble within the box, which I think is something that Arsenal really, really need to work on.

United started the match brightly.

First 15, they had the first chance of the game, I thought.

There was a link-up with Park and Sandberg and Rolfo had her header tipped onto the bar.

And the game probably needed that to go in.

because once Arsenal got a foothold in the game United really just dropped off and like you say they banked up they probably recognised that the better team were on top and they clung on in there so a huge amount of respect for them for that obviously as a fan you want to see them kick on but based on the run of form they've been in it's definitely you take the point and now they've got a

better runner games coming up than Arsenal do in the next three games Arsenal have to go and play City and Chelsea so I wouldn't be surprised if we see the Arsenal Spurs Man United positions in the table kind of go to and fro over the next little while yeah definitely and I think for United like when you're
