Arsenal statement: We acknowledge our current womens first-team squad does not reflect the diversity that exists across the club and the communities we represent. Increasing participation among young women and girls from diverse backgrounds is a key priority for us
Is it really such a crime for your XI to have the same skin colour? Are 11 white people not allowed to be together without it requiring a club statement anymore?
Not quite understanding that one myself. Just pointing out what the article they obviously didn’t read says, not saying the outrage is justified or anything.
It’s still ridiculous. They have players from all over the world, and they are diverse. Signing a black player for the sake of diversity is pure tokenism.

Fucking hell man.
Disgusting the world we live in where being white is considered racist.
I used to get down about silly threads like this but these days I genuinely find the pearl clutching hilarious
I get what you’re getting at, but people are reacting to the full squad photo, not just the XI, so 27 players.
lol at you being downvoted for a factually correct observation

Absolutely - the comments and voting on this thread are wild.

Just saying what the article says in response to a guy who just read the title. Not saying it justifies the outrage, did I?
Dread it, run from it, the Reddit hivemind still arrives
Why are people who clearly never read the article writing stupid posts like this
