Summary
In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast Tim and Jamie analyse Sunday’s 4-0 win over Crystal Palace on Sunday. They talk about the relatively stable starting line up and what that says about what Renee Slegers is trying to create, they analyse the roles played by Chloe Kelly and Jenna Nighswonger, before considering Beth Mead’s continued high output. In part two there are lots of listener questions about the future of the midfield, rest and rotation and the increase in female coaches in the WSL.

| 0:00.0 | Hello, welcome to the Arsenal Women Askastcast and AskBlog.com with me, your host, Tim Stillman. |
| 0:18.5 | Looking back on Sunday's 4-0 win over Crystal Palace in the WSL, |
| 0:23.5 | a second consecutive 4-0 win in the WSL as well, 14 goals in the last four games scored. |
| 0:31.3 | I think an own goal in each of the last three WSL games at the moment, |
| 0:35.6 | Arsenal really knocking it out of the park. It must be said. |
| 0:38.9 | And here to look over that game with me is, as ever, our co-host Jamie Spanga. Jamie, how are you doing? |
| 0:45.6 | Hey, Tim, very good. Do you know what I've noticed, though? Like, I'm not going to mention the weather |
| 0:49.4 | because I listen back to our podcast and every single time. I'm like, who is this girl? I'm always talking about the sun. But otherwise, very good. Great win out in Sutton. It was nice to get, |
| 0:58.5 | you know, a train in two buses to get there. But it was a good afternoon, great football game and |

| 1:24.4 | It's been, it's been around for a very very long time and i think both the |
| 1:28.3 | the gradients on the stands and the press box were built during a time when humans were a little |

| 1:39.8 | right it was a lovely day we were hunkered a little bit in in the shade where it wasn't quite as warm and brilliant sunshine. |
| 1:47.1 | But, you know, went along trying to strike that balance between riding the high of Wednesday |
| 1:53.1 | and not losing focus on this. |
| 1:55.4 | And I think a lot of people, myself included, thought there might be more changes in the starting line up. So, you know, |
| 2:02.8 | we had Beth Mead came in for Caitlin Ford, Learvalti came in for Kim Little, and then Jen and I swung |
