Gilly Flaherty, recognized as a top defender, enjoyed a remarkable 17-year career in women's football, predominantly with Arsenal, where she won the quadruple in her debut season. With stints at Chelsea, West Ham, and Liverpool, she accumulated 22 trophies and represented the Lionesses nine times. Recently retiring in 2023, Flaherty now works as a pundit, reflecting on pivotal matches that shaped her career, including her senior debut at just 15 and lifting the FA Cup with Arsenal in 2009, both of which hold significant personal value for her.
This was my introduction to senior football and it holds a lot of special memories. My family was there to watch.
Beating Sunderland to lift the FA Cup is a game that sticks out more than most. I had been on the bench a lot.
