Some of the richest clubs in women's football saw their revenues increase by 35% last year, with Arsenal generating the largest revenue in Europe for the first time since Deloitte began charting the top earners in the women's game. The north London side had revenues of 25.6m (22.2m), narrowly overtaking Chelsea, thanks largely to their 7m of matchday revenue, which was nearly twice as much as anyone else, boosted by their move to play all of their home league fixtures at the Emirates Stadium.

We always seemed to have it over Arsenal, psychologically as much as anything else, Pulis tells FourFourTwo. Arsene was bemused by the fact that Rory could throw the ball that well, and bemused that we could cause so much trouble by doing that. The best features, fun and footballing quizzes, straight to your inbox every week. He tried to ban throw-ins, then he complained about the length of the grass on the pitch,

Arsenal have been busy in the transfer market in recent times, bringing in two defenders in Cristhian Mosquera and Piero Hincapie last summer. Riccardo Calafiori joined the summer before that, but it seems AFC aren't done yet, with Diomande and Brown set to be targeted. This could point towards players leaving, with Ben White no longer playing regularly and attracting interest from Everton, according to football.london.

Arsenal are reportedly up against Bayern Munich for the potential transfer of highly-rated Serbian wonderkid Vasilije Kostov, who has drawn comparisons with Barcelona's Pedri. The 17-year-old attacking midfielder has already made 26 first-team appearances for Red Star Belgrade and has won cap for Serbia's senior national team.

And for large portions of Arsenal's 3-2 win at Chelsea in the Carabao Cup semi-final first-leg on Wednesday, it certainly was not. But for Mikel Arteta and his players, there was a beauty in the physicality, the remorseless levels of aggression. Arsenal won because of what they did without the ball. Yes, there were nice moments from them in possession, most obviously Martin Zubimendi's goal for 3-1.

Holding a commanding six-point buffer at the top of the Premier League table and sat firmly in the driving seat to claim a first domestic crown since way back in 2004, Arsenal have gained a fearsome reputation from across the globe. However, although Mikel Arteta 's men might be dreaming of the chance to complete an iconic silverware sweep this year, it has been suggested that the Spanish tactician is planning another defensive overhaul in north London.

Eze, meanwhile, hasn't quite got going at Arsenal, currently understudying Leandro Trossard. In a sense, his signing was a risk as, at 27, he's not getting that much better, but when you're competing for the big pots it's not just about the best 1-11 but about the ability to rest players whole having serious talent able to affect games from the bench,

Arsenal missed the opportunity to make up ground on their Women's Super League title rivals as they drew 0-0 with Manchester United, who had Jayde Riviere sent off. Riviere was given her marching orders after committing two bookable offences, the second of which was a late challenge on Caitlin Foord in the 65th minute. But United stood firm against a barrage of Arsenal shots at the Emirates Stadium, with Phallon Tullis-Joyce remaining unbeaten between the sticks to keep the gap between the teams
