Arsenal Women boss Jonas Eidevall demands the FA to do more to help English sides progress in the Champions League, insisting wins over PSG and Lyon were in spite of system... as Swede hits out at league and European fixture scheduling

Arsenal women boss Jonas Eidevall has called on the Football Association to do more to help English teams progress in the Champions League and said their lack of dialogue with clubs is ‘not good enough’.

The Gunners and Chelsea are the two English representatives in Europe this season, with Manchester City having been eliminated in qualifying. Eidevall’s side shocked holders Lyon with a 5-1 victory in their opening group game last week while the Blues beat Paris Saint-Germain 1-0.

Arsenal are the only English team to win the competition, in 2007, while Chelsea reached the final in 2021 but were beaten 4-0 by Barcelona.
