Morning all.
We’re half way through this international break but this last week has felt like a month. So far, it’s good news on the injury front but of course, there is still one game for our players to feature in. Bukayo Saka and Ebe Eze secured England’s 2-0 victory over Serbia, both with stunning finishes. We could do with them doing the same next Sunday.
There is no real Arsenal news out there which isn’t a bad thing as no news is often said to be good news.
Declan Rice is one of the nominees for the Puskas award for his free kick against Real Madrid earlier in the year. But, he’s up against strong contenders. Reddit have assembled a video the nominees.
There are some amazing goals in that clip but honestly, as much as I admire the stunners, I love any goal however the ball crosses the line. A wonder strike, a scrappy toe poke or a goal which hits a players backside before deflecting into the back of the net, they all end with the same result.
Saying that, I’d love Dec to win the award but I’m not sure he will as there are too many flash overhead kicks up against him.
North London Derby day for Renée Slegers side tomorrow. The two clubs are level on points in the WSL, 6 points behind leaders Man City. After a disappointing result in the week losing 3-2 against Bayern Munich having been 2-0 up, Slegers side need a win.
Catch up in the comments.
afternoon all!
Few chances for Declan Rice, it seems to me…
Me too Jm
The recognition that comes from being nominated is always welcome, Rico, JM.
