A very subjective look into AWFC

There are so many things to talk about Just when I thought I had a lot on me plate to write about, the news about Kim Little dropped this morning and of course this is something that I need to write about. There’s also Chelsea and a conversation I was a part of which included the one and only Suzy Wrack.

The fact that Kim signed a contract extension can be summarized by this reaction: FUCK YES. It’s fantastic news every way you look at it. It’s great for the club, for the squad, for the fans and I hope that Kim makes as much money as she can. We are so lucky to have her be such a massive part of Arsenal and she deserves a statue at the very least.

I will never forget how much hate and vitriol I got on twitter because I kept going on and on about how Kim and Lia were the best midfield partnership (this is before Mariona and I still think it anyway). There was so many fans saying that we needed to replace them or at the very least bench them. Now, I don’t actually have problem with people thinking that or feeling that other players are the future, that’s their opinion and I respect it. What bothered me then and still does now is how dismissive they were about Kim. As if she was just another player. She’s not.

She’s Kim Little.

And there has only been ONE and there will only be ONE Kim Little.

Now, onto the Chelsea match. I had predicted a 4-2 and the two goal difference did come to fruition. I enjoyed the match a lot as most fans did but I don’t think the tie is over, by any stretch of the imagination. Not just because we’re playing away from home next week, but because they will have Ellie Carpenter and Sam Kerr back plus Sonia Bonpastor will surely make adjustments. Let’s just hope that she pulls an Arteta and makes the subs when they game is lost already, but Sonia is not a coward now, is she?

Lastly, I should’ve shared this before and I actually thought I did but here’s a long conversation we had on The Highbury Squad with not just the amazing host and queen herself Sophie Nicolaou and also with Albert Umoh aka AlbertJTV but we were joined by one of the most important voices in women’s football, Suzy Wrack.
