Pressure continued to mount on Renee Slegers as Arsenal were booed off the pitch following their 1-1 draw with Birmingham at the Emirates.
Arsenal went into the international break with just five points from their opening five WSL games after the 4-2 defeat with Manchester City, and just one win in six in all competitions.
A home game against newly-promoted Birmingham, who themselves had mustered just two league draws all campaign, seemed like the scenario to return to winning ways.
That was not to be the case.
After Alessia Russo struck the post with a fabulous diving header in the first half, the Gunners were left stunned as they were hit on the break early in the second, allowing September's player of the month Oceane Hurtre to poke the visitors ahead.
Birmingham's resolve was tested, with Sophie Baggaley making a superb save to maintain the lead. However, seconds later she was beaten by an incredible Olivia Smith strike to pull Slegers' side level.
Arsenal pushed for a late winner but a combination of Baggaley and their inefficiency in front of goal that has plagued them all season ensured they went winless in five WSL games for the first time.
It resulted in boos at the full-time whistle, as questions over Slegers' future intensify.
14: SAVE! Cooney-Cross' smart half-volley kept out by Baggaley.
18: OVER! Russo gifted a chance after Baggaley's poor pass, but attempted lob goes over.
38: POST! Russo comes agonisingly close to converting excellent Williamson cross.
50: OVER! Holmberg impressive run ends in her striking over the bar.
53: GOAL! Arsenal shell-shocked as Hurtre gives Birmingham lead on the counter.
65: HUGE SAVE! Baggaley denies Baum from point-blank range.
66: GOAL! Smith stunner pulls Gunners level.
73: MASSIVE SAVE! Baggaley again on hand to stop Wubben-Moy right on the line.
76: OVER! Smith snatches at big chance to put Arsenal ahead.
Arsenal boss Renee Slegers speaking in her post-match press conference:
"Everything I want is for the best of us and for the success of all these players. So, that's heavily on my mind and I still believe I can impact and help the team forward.
"But, if that's not the case anymore, then a change needs to happen, but I have belief in knowing where we can go with this team and it's been really tough.
"Like I just said, if it had been all negative and we hadn't been looking like Arsenal but that's not the case.
"There's some details that we need to get right and those details are costing us right now. Those margins are costing us and I believe that if we get that right, it'll be good."
Your Site' Izzy Christiansen:
"It's been such an interesting start to the season for Arsenal. I think they are left with so many questions and no answers right now, but they are not playing badly. They're not failing to create chances.
"If Manchester City and Chelsea win tomorrow, you would almost write them out of the title race.
"If they had won today they might've found a bit of momentum. I genuinely think the failure to win today has pushed them out of a title race. That was not what Renee Slegers' mission was this season."
