Sat down with Alessia Russo as she hosted the second edition of the Alessia Cup.

We spoke about her foundation, adjusting to life in the spotlight and how a sit down with the Arsenal psychologist the day before the Paris game led to goals.

Planning on doing a temperature check piece at the on Arsenal Women’s fans feelings on the state of the club. Looking to a hear from range of fans from the away end so please get in touch if you’re an Arsenal fan attending tomorrow’s match!

Following my reporting on @The_Cutback in May, the Rodman rule is no longer just for the Rodman rule. The eligibility criteria for the High Impact Player rule has been removed. One of several updates following NWSL-NWSLPA resolution on key issues.

[The Cutback @The_Cutback]

The NWSL is set to amend its new High Impact Player (HIP) rule and remove the criteria that players had to meet in order to be signed on special contracts that were $1-million over the league salary cap, The Cutback can reveal.

The change would open the door for star players like Sam Kerr to earn salaries over the current cap.

Kerr has been heavily linked with a move to the NWSL when her contract with Chelsea expires at the end of the season.

Asked Renee Slegers in her pre-Spurs presser about the boos at the Emirates and she said it was the “sound of care”, and fans had a right to express their frustration.

Arsenal have sold out their away allocation for the north London derby tomorrow at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, just under 4,000 tickets sold. It's Arsenal's largest away crowd in the WSL in two and a half years.

No player was involved in more open-play attacking sequences (97) or created more chances (36) in the UWCL than Alexia Putellas this season.

Would a third Ballon d'Or be deserved? 🏆

Good thread on why "personality" media businesses aren't as easy to build as lots of celebrities think.

[Tom Nicholas | Watch SLOW NEWS DAY on Nebula! @Tom_Nicholas]

Feels hard to write about the Amol Rajan show without it coming across as being mean, because just over 400 views in 4 hours must be absolutely devastating.

Arsenal have spent the largest share of their match time in a drawing game state in the WSL this season (61%) – while level, the Gunners have the best shot difference per 90 (+15) but still have a negative goal difference per 90 (-0.25).

I went to Spurs' training ground this week ahead of Saturday's NLD.

Spoke to Martin Ho about the raised expectations this season, why his team have shipped 12 goals in 2 games and the pressure of needing a result against your biggest rivals.

Really excited for this one from @Odriozolite on @The_Cutback.

Arturo Ruiz replaced Dario Vidosic weeks before the start of the WSL. Brighton had recruited were and were chasing a top four/top six spot.

Have they gone backwards?...
