"We want to go and win the league," mdifielder Mariona Caldentay told Sky Sports. "The WSL title is definitely the trophy we are eyeing up," added defender Lotte Wubben Moy. It's been a long wait for the Gunners to add to their four WSL titles.
Their last came back in 2019 and Arsenal are not hiding away from the ambition of ending that drought. "We know the fans want the WSL title as much as we do," Wubben-Moy told Sky Sports. "We want to add to Arsenal's 15 titles." Caldentay added: "I'd love to win all of the titles, of course, but the league is a big focus for us.
"We have been missing consistency but if we can find that, we'll be close to winning the league. "You need to be good in every game to finish first in the league. "That's really hard to do but that is our mentality now.
That is what we want to do." On the diffiucty of winning the title, she added: "It's something we are really working towards but then there is so much competition now. "There are so many good teams now and they are also signing good players this summer. The league gets better every year and that is so good for the competition.
"We now have such good teams, players, stadiums and facilities. That is so good for women's football." Arsenal finished four points behind winners Man City last season and while the Gunners won the inaugural Champions Cup, they did not retain their Women's Champions League title and also exited the FA Cup at the quarter-final stage and the League Cup in the semi-finals. A slow start in the league, which has become a bit of a trend for Arsenal in recent season, once again proved costly for Rene Slegers' side.
Wubben-Moy is aware a fast start could be crucial to Arsenal's title ambititions and is ready to "right the wrongs" of previous campaigns. "We have had a good six to seven-week pre-season," the England international said. "That's a luxury in our game and it's a great opportunity to build with the players we already have and build on what we've already got.
