Well, Arsenal Women didn’t win any of the big trophies we hoped for - apart from that weird five-day Champions Cup. But that’s not stopping Laura and Lucy from handing out our own set of trophies to cap off the season: it’s time for our TTAA Alternative Awards!From some of the brilliant moments conjured up by Alessia Russo n’ co, to some heart-wrenching/shoulder-shrugging moments that ultimately doomed us to finishing as WSL runners-up, there’s plenty of highs and lows to remember. Plus, we pay one final tribute to the players leaving us this summer - one brilliant, mad Irishwoman in particular.We want to hear your own awards!

Luke and Jim spent the day celebrating the title win in one of the craziest days Holloway Road will ever witness – but they still made it to the studio to record another post-match pod!Admittedly, today’s win over Palace had a weird pre-season vibe to it, but at least we saw some of the wider squad remind us of their qualities and put their hands up for the Champions League final. Plus, the magic moment: lifting the trophy in the blazing London sunshine.

Apologies to all friends and family.We also hear about the Arsenal fan who truly had the best night of any Gooner in the whole world.

Come join us to continue the celebrations!

After 22 years, Arsenal Football Club are champions of England once more. DRINK IT IN!!!Luke and Jim clamber out of the crowds around the Emirates to celebrate everything: from these incredible players, to Mikel Arteta and his bloody process, to what Jim thinks was the most important signing of our recent history in the form of Eberechi Eze, and the rollercoaster of emotions we've all gone through this season.
