    The 25-year-old full-back recently made the shift to the Gunners from NWSL side North Carolina Courage. Fox has immediately made her way into Jonas Eidevall's side having played in all two of the games since her incorporation. Since her move, Fox has played away from home twice and the support from travelling fans has surprised her as she stated this was something she "never experienced".
