Why Always She? - A Women’s Football Podcast

Charli and Matt are back, checking in with the WSL, WSL2 and wider women's football transfer window as it gets into full swing and big moves are already happening. And no bigger than La Reina herself, Alexia Putellas, confirming her move to London City Lionesses this week. Charli delivers a monologue on what that's really about, meanwhile Matt looks at Arsenal's trio of excellent signings. Who else is making good moves? Who should we be looking out for? It's all here, in classic Why Always She rambling round-about fashion. 

Charli and Matt are joined by fellow Leicester fan/sufferer Cousin Danielle to pick through the bones of the Foxes' disastrous 25/26 season. Where did it all go wrong? Were there are any positives to take away? Where do we go from here?

Charli and Matt pick their 25/26 WSL Team of the Season - but they can only pick one player per team. They also rattle off some quick-fire end of season awards.

Manchester City are on the cusp of winning their first WSL title in a decade, and with the FA Cup still on the table, this could turn out to be their most successful season in a long while. In this episode, Charli and Matt discuss where they go next to sustain their momentum - what business do they need to do in the summer? What tactical shifts should they make? Just how insane would they be to not retain Bunny Shaw? Do they really need McCabe and Mead?
 
**Apologies that this episode sounds like it was recorded on a '90s answering machine. Charli cocked up the audio setup. Back to sounding crisp next time.**

Charli and Matt return to spotlight “the other eight” WSL teams by debating the best forward outside the top four, discussing the strengths and attributes of the six shortlisted players and scoring them based on output, versatility, clutch impact and consistency.

This week Charli and Matt turn the spotlight on Manchester United. Amidst some recent noise around them after losing to Chelsea in the League Cup Final and dropping points to West Ham, do they have what it takes to go to the next level? What can we pinpoint about their tactics, squad and mentality that might be holding them back? 

Charli and Matt are back and tackling a hot topic recently surrounding the Lionesses - who should be left back? They unpick the debate looking at who's played there under Wiegman so far, what she wants from her leftback, and who the main candidates are. 

In this (actually!) quick episode, Matt and Charli recap the FA Cup fifth round and reflect on the current state of some of the teams. Can Charlton force a cupset? Is Eder Maestre in a bit of bother? They then quickly preview the Asian Cup and upcoming World Cup Qualifiers.

Charli and Matt tackle a real mix of topics this week. They start with the state of affairs in the WSL, and just what is wrong with Aston Villa. They then check in with the WSL2 and the exciting battle for the promotion and playoff posts. A quick word on the Champions League and Manchester United's impressive form, then on to discussion of the latest England squad.
