Summary

Who could be the next Arsenal boss and has Renee Slegers done enough to get the job full-time? Ellen and Jen give their thoughts on what kind of manager is needed at the club and give an insight into Nick Cushing who is one possible candidate to replace Jonas Eidevall.
Plus Jen talks NWSL play-offs with Bay FC and winning the 2024 Lauren Holiday Impact Award for her work off the pitch.
