Arsenal Women struggle for goals despite Champions League efforts

Summary

Arsenal Women sit sixth in the WSL, battling to find form after a strong Champions League start. Manager Renée Slegers, appointed in 2024, helped the team achieve significant successes, including a Champions League title. However, Arsenal's current tally of just 10 goals in nine league games has raised concerns about their attacking capabilities and overall confidence. Key player departures in the summer have potentially contributed to this decline as they strive to avoid being mired in mid-table. Discussions around tactical changes and management direction are ongoing as the team looks to improve their league performance.
