## Resource

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie rake over the coals of Sunday's 2-0 FA Cup defeat to Brighton where a rotated and tired looking Gunners side were outmatched by Dario Vidosic's side. Tim and Jamie discuss the level of rotation, what it suggests about squad depth, how Brighton's approach made it difficult for Arsenal, lack of depth in midfield and whether a dropoff in performance is avoidable after a pair of massive Champions League games. In part 2, Tim and Jamie take your questions submitted on Bluesky. EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/arseblog Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!
