In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie rake over the coals of Arsenal's Champions League semi-final exit to Lyon on Saturday. They talk about not being able to live with Lyon's intensity in the first half, the VAR penalty decision, Arsenal's second half improvement, the substitutions and whether they expose depth issues with the squad at this level and there is some chat about the emotional response to the defeat. In part 2, Tim and Jamie ask your questions submitted on BlueSky, most of which were about squad building and the summer transfer window.
