60 shots, 2 goals for Arsenal so far this term. Manchester United were the latest team to keep their attackers (almost) at bay. After coming away with a point from a physical battle at the Emirates, have Eva Olid’s side turned a corner?

Finally, Chloe and Rachel are joined by FootballCo's Lead Women’s Football Writer and certified Friend of the Pod Ameé Ruszkai to preview the return of the Champions League!
