Arsenal’s hammer blow, Brighton’s week of chaos, and why becoming a coach is so hard

Leah Williamson was back and it was all looking so promising for Arsenal. But then… enter West Ham!

Chloe and Rachel look back on a huge defeat that leaves Arsenal’s title hopes seriously damaged – but was it really that big a surprise? Rachel explains why West Ham had this in their locker.

We also discuss Brighton’s shock decision to sack Melissa Phillips and the chaos that ensued. Plus, Crystal Palace’s Annabel Johnson joins us ahead of their clash with Chelsea in the FA Cup and shares her experience of training to be a coach and some of her concerns about the process. Join us!
