Hi.
First and foremost, I have to start this post the way I start almost every single one of my journal entries, and that is through an apology. I apologize for not being around. My heart just hasn’t been in it and believe it or not, I rather not write negative stuff, because even though things seem ok at the club, they are surely not in my opinion.
We got the news that Yeah, Amanda and Lina have left the club. Like you, I’d like to wish them all the best. They all must feel very frustrated and have their own personal situation going on but as a fan I can only hope that they look back at their time at AWFC fondly.
I can’t believe the girls are in the CL final. I honestly had zero hope against Lyon in the second leg specially because I felt that a double 6 situation with Kim and Mariona just wasn’t good enough as I thought they needed to be 8s. Boy was I wrong.
But I will say that the reason we won was also because DVD (the real one, not Daphne) didn’t start, which makes absolutely no sense whatsoever but it sure as hell was a relief.
I still have mixed feelings about Renee and I strongly disagree with her on many things and with most fan base to be honest. I just saw how people kept going on and on about Foord being our player of the season. What.
There is no universe in which I see us beating Barcelona without Lia Walti and Beth Mead playing. There is absolutely nothing you can tell me to convince me. I don’t care who we’ve beaten without them. In my mind, we cannot. If their 3 in midfield start, we need Lia. Simple as.
I know what you might think… that I support players and not the club but that is not correct, I just happen to have infinite more faith and hope when Beth plays over Foord, etc etc etc.
Arsenal is a very weird club, almost bipolar. So many highs and lows. I just love it.
Back to the CL final….
ANYTHING can happen and of course I think we have a chance, even without key players. There’s always a chance and if football has proven anything to me infinite time over the years is that I have no idea what I’m talking about.
But you know what I’m gonna say…. if we had Viv we would crush them.
