Image

"His attitude” Arteta discusses how Nwaneri feels about lack of game time

Image
  Ethan Nwaneri has struggled for game time at Arsenal this season, a situation many consider disappointing given the clear potential he possesses. The attacker remains one of the most exciting talents in the Arsenal squad, consistently impressing whenever he is given the opportunity to feature. As part of the current group of players to progress from the Arsenal academy into the first team, expectations around his development are naturally high. Last season, Nwaneri enjoyed a more extended run with the senior side and made a notable impact. However, opportunities have been limited this term. With Arsenal now boasting a greater number of senior players and competing strongly for the league title, integrating younger players has become more challenging. The demands of the campaign have required the manager to rely heavily on experienced options, meaning academy graduates have had fewer chances to establish themselves. Limited Opportunities but Continued Development The club remain c...

Manchester United decide against move for Senegalese youngster

Image
  Manchester United’s recruitment strategy continues to intrigue, mixing global scouting with the harsh realities of squad management. The decision not to offer Mouhamed Dabo a contract, despite his encouraging trial spell, underlines a club attempting to balance potential with practicality. The teenager made a strong impression at Old Trafford, yet United opted not to move forward, suggest reports from MEN. As one source close to the academy remarked, “sometimes timing decides everything and not talent alone.” Rising Talents and Competitive Pathways Dabo has already secured his next step, signing a pre-contract with Croatian side NK Kustošija after representing Senegal at the Under-17 World Cup. His journey captures the challenge young players face when trying to break into elite European academies. Even if United had acted differently, the midfielder would have been unable to sign until he turns 18 next summer, a delay that did little to strengthen his case. The arrival of Cristi...

What Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard did after Arsenal heartbreak in contrasting reactions

Image
  Martin Odegaard has been heavily scrutinised for his role in Aston Villa's late winner against Arsenal Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard reacted very differently when Aston Villa netted a late winner against Arsenal. Emiliano Buendia fired Unai Emery's side to a 2-1 win over the Gunners at Villa Park on Saturday afternoon, smashing the ball past David Raya in the dying embers of stoppage time. The Aston Villa midfielder, who replaced Matty Cash towards the end of the second half, pounced on a loose ball in the box following a goalmouth scramble. Jurrien Timber blocked Buendia's initial effort from close range before he and Ben White dived into a tackle on Boubacar Kamara. Declan Rice and Martin Zubimendi raced onto the scene as the ball broke free, but the Argentine managed to lift the ball into the top corner. As Buendia wheeled away in celebration, every Arsenal player in the box fell to their knees, apart from two: Myles Lewis-Skelly and the Gunners captain. Raya, Rice a...

Eberechi Eze has vowed Arsenal will ‘keep believing’ in their Premier League title dream after the draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. The Gunners were held to a share of the spoils despite having a man advantage after Moises Caicedo was sent off in the first half. Mikel Merino, who was on the receiving end of the Ecuador international’s horrendous challenge, found the equaliser after Trevor Chalobah had opened the scoring. “They made it difficult at times,” Eze admitted in the aftermath of the draw. “But an important point on the road for us. “We are going to keep going. Keep pushing and go on to Wednesday.” The England international added: “I'd say it's an important point.

Marcus Rashford's wish finally granted after Man United loanee's Barcelona denial

Image
  Marcus Rashford has thrived during his season-long loan with Barcelona after falling out of favour at Manchester United under Ruben Amorim, and checked a goal off his bucket list on Saturday afternoon Marcus Rashford has at last fulfilled his ambition of representing Barcelona at the Camp Nou. The Manchester United loanee came off the bench at the turn of the second-half on Saturday against Alaves. Rashford had previously expressed his eagerness to perform before Barcelona supporters at their legendary stadium, as the Camp Nou had been closed due to extensive £1.3billion renovation work, forcing the Catalan club to play elsewhere. After securing his loan move this summer, Rashford said: "It's a very nice feeling. It's a beautiful stadium and when it is full it's going to be unbelievable. "Camp Nou was always one of my favourite stadiums and one I wanted to play in. But to play on it for Barcelona is going to be a different feeling. I cannot wait to be on the pit...
