    Saw someone on Twitter point out that things at Arsenal can’t be that bad under Eidevall if she’s extending, which honestly kinda fair lol

    Still, I think that says more about Leah than Jonas, can’t understand letting Miedema go for free at all.

      @Astrealix @Aesecakes I’ve only been following the women’s team for 2 seasons, about 1.5 seasons more than necessary to have had enough of Eidevall, but who would be credible contenders for an upgrade? Leah’s “my home” signing spiel makes it possible the decision to make Emirates the women’s official home ground played a part in her decision. It also suggests the club is really serious about the women’s team, so they absolutely deserve better, imo
