I just honestly don't think Arsenal have enough world-class players.
00:04
Marenda Caldante, I think, is a top player, world-class.
00:06
She's done it in Barcelona.
00:07
But when you look at, like, Caitlin Ford, Katie McCabe, top players.
00:11
But when I look at world-class, you look at Lyon, you look at Barcelona,
00:14
like, they are world-class all over the pitch.
00:16
Wendy Renard wasn't even on the pitch at the weekend.
00:18
Do you know what I mean?
00:19
Like, this is the type of strength and depth these teams have.
00:21
And I don't think Arsenal have it.
00:22
I think René Stegas can build it.
00:24
She's only been in there six months full-time.
00:26
Not even that yet.
00:26
So I do believe she's the person that could continue to build.
00:29
But I just think if Arsenal end up trophy-less this year again,
00:33
then there needs to be something.
00:34
There needs to be a conveyor belt of a change.
00:36
Do you know what I'm trying to say?
00:37
Like, not changing of the guard, but they need to go and recruit.
00:39
They need to get players, you know.
00:41
They need to go and get a Trinity Rodman, a Barbara Bander.
00:43
They need to bring in players that are world-class.
00:45
Because right now, I don't see many world-class players in that Arsenal team.
