## Resource

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie take listener questions from BlueSky on Arsenal’s rebuild and how it is going, the impact for all women’s football of a rapidly inflating market for salaries and transfer fees, why Arsenal and Manchester City doesn’t seem to be a proper rivalry yet, why paths for academy players are shrinking in the WSL, how recruitment and infrastructure has improved over the last five years and revisiting the article from the Athletic last winter about dressing room discord.
