Kyra Cooney-Cross, Steph Catley and Caitlin Foord share their resolve to win domestic honours and World Cup highlights
“When you see people giving everything they’ve got, you can’t help but be like: ‘I want to watch more, I want to support you, I want to back you,’” says the Arsenal full-back Steph Catley. “That’s what [fans] see in our team. Especially towards the end of last year, knowing how much we’d been through, losing so many of our teammates to injury, seeing we were absolutely giving everything – you can’t help but love a team that does that.”
Arsenal are back on Sunday, playing Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium in their opening WSL game with a crowd of more than 50,000 expected, ready to continue carrying a new fanbase with them on the next phase of their journey.
