Arsenal’s FA Cup hoodoo, the WSL2 can’t stop cooking and England vs Spain... again!
Upfront - A Women's Football PodcastShow Notes
Fresh from their two-legged triumph at Stamford Bridge in the Champions League, Arsenal kept up their poor FA Cup form with a 2-0 defeat against Brighton. Chloe and Rachel praise Brighton and ask just why Arsenal can’t get the consistency to fight on multiple fronts.
Elsewhere, it’s high time we take a closer look at the title race in WSL2 because it is HOT! We take you through all the permutations and Chloe explains just what it’s like to start planning ahead for the top-flight as a player when you’re still not sure about your future. Plus, an England vs Spain preview! And we promise we haven’t just copy pasted the last one.

The last weekend of the WSL before the international break – and boy did it deliver! Chloe and Rachel are here to unpack it all.
We’ve not even said goodbye to September and we’re already saying goodbye to our first manager this season. Time’s up for Natalia Arroyo at Aston Villa after a thrashing by Tottenham, who are flying high in the table. Is it too early or did Villa need to move on?
