The interim Arsenal head coach, Renée Slegers, said she was glad to see smiles back on Arsenal faces after her rejuvenated side enjoyed a fifth win from six games under her stewardship by coasting to a surprisingly easy victory away at neighbours Tottenham.
Slegers, who took up the reins after Jonas Eidevall resigned on 15 October, saw her side back up Tuesday’s impressive 4-0 victory away at Juventus with another one-sided win in the north London derby and said: “It means a lot for the players, the staff, the club and the fans. It’s the chicken or the egg question, where do the smiles come from? Behaviours are contagious, as soon as someone starts smiling, so where exactly it started, I think it’s hard to grasp, but I’m happy that’s what’s happening at the moment.”
