Summary
In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie analyse Arsenal’s 4-2 defeat to Brighton on Monday that leaves them needing a point against Manchester United on the final day to seal 2nd place. They talk about Arsenal’s issues with Brighton’s press, familiar vulnerabilities to pace and power through the middle of the team, as well as the trade-off between greater fluidity and chance creation under Renee Slegers but greater vulnerability to counter-attacks. In the second half, there are questions about the goalkeeping situation, how to defend better against counter attacks and whether there is a mentality issue with conceding goals in clusters.

| 0:55.2 | Hello and welcome to the Arsenal Women Askcast on AskBlog.com with me, your host, Tim Stillman, looking back on Sunday's 4-2 defeat at Brighton. That's right. We didn't do a podcast after the Aston Villa game, partly because it's difficult to do because of scheduling, |
| 1:00.1 | partly because we didn't really think anyone wanted a podcast about that game in particular. |
| 1:04.8 | So, Arsenal were very generous and basically just repeated that game for us on Sunday and did basically all the same things, except the starting line up, I guess. |
| 1:09.9 | But anyway, here to chew the fat with me over that game is, as ever, our co-host, Jamie Spanger. |
| 1:15.9 | Jamie, how are you doing? |
| 1:17.3 | Tim, I've been better. |
| 1:18.6 | I've been better. |
| 1:19.4 | It's been a really rough week to be an Arsenal fan after the biggest high of being an Arsenal fan. |
| 1:24.7 | So I'm not extremely looking forward to this post-mortem. |
| 1:27.7 | However, we have to do it. |
| 1:29.4 | So let's bail on with it. |
| 1:31.1 | Yeah, therapy. |
| 1:32.2 | Yeah, I mean, Arsenal are one-clubbing very hard at the moment. |
| 1:35.9 | A big commitment to gender equality with both teams having second place |
| 1:40.4 | absolutely in their hands for weeks and weeks and weeks |
| 1:43.3 | and just repeatedly deciding to |
