It's high time the female cadet teams begin to get female handlers(preferably legends of the senior female team). That would be a big moral booster, especially if said legend is sound in the coaching and tactics. That way, we set them up for the step up to the NT, alongside the players as well.

Bellerin and sadly, AMN will soon leave too.
I'm waiting for the gaffer to sort the squad first and let's see how good the bench will be.
Heard we are going for Diaby. 60M pere

BTW Roma dey vex
Las las like 120m go comot from all of them at most.


Europa contenders are majorly Two Epl teams and Roma. It will be an interesting game if we meet Roma in the KO stages.

Jodera ... Now I can smile grin grin

We did it!

The only negative from the match is our weak bench. Just imagine the way Tearknee slotted in for Zinch and Nketiah, for Jesus...can Nelson and Pepe do the same for Martinelli and Saka respectively? I now know why Arteta is in market for another wide forward.
Torreira to Gala is completed. Once we trim down that Exit list, the sub will look more attractive, even in the Europa league.


Roma dey vex too o.

The whole team did well

Na guardiola know why e allow zichenko go ,I can understand Jesus own

At worst arsenal should make top 4 ,but too early to judge because I never too trust arteta
Sha trust the process. Naso we hear grin

Saliba will give +7 ratings in next 6games. He went into this debut looking for it and he's gotten it.

Good win. We snuffed it out actually. But they outplayed us. Vieira getting praised by the Arsenal fans. I don't think Arteta has outsmarted him since Vieira became a Manager in EPL.

Zaha is a skillful player, it’s not easy to keep him quiet. I think White did a decent job in the 1st. But Palace have gained momentum and are seeing more of the ball.
White too is messing up abeg. See that Eze chance. He was just unaware of him. Split seconds

Zaha has won the battle vs White. White is just off. Yellow unnecessary, even more than Xhaka own. undecided

I.honestly wish Tomiyasu can just be injury free and play that RB for us like we expected
It would have been easier to deal with Zaha. That guy is good. Dunno why he's still at Palace though. Funny he's there now and forever.


Notice Eze's game too. I love his game.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: The Red & White Army: 2025/2026 EPL Champions! by daveP(m): 9:00pm On Aug 05, 2022
Can we press then through Nelli wing and then switch play to Saka? Zinch can accurately do that for us. It will reduce their midfield presence. For now, Odegaard needs give way for either Smith or Elneny. This isn't his game. Even if he scores tonight, Palace is an Achilles heel gor Odegaard anyday.

Ben White is making the job of Saka very difficult ; he's not always there for him
True. And Saka is helping White with Zaha on his neck. Hate to say it, but Cedric and Yasu understand Saka better than White.

You beat me to it
This game is not for him, he just they help us carry arm band
Btw that xhaka yellow is wrong those ref dan start, Andersen wanted to pull him he anticipated for it
I don't think Odegaard needs to play every game. Since he arrived Emirates, he's struggled specifically against Palace and Brighton.

Odegaard just sleep for 45 minutes embarassed
I think say na me notice am only. So Zinch now wears Nelli's former number? Nice.

Xhaka's game today is intense. Glad He's not in Roma right now. Even if that's hard to admit grin

Jesus and Saka will need to work better on their understanding.


Ebere Eze is having a great day and it translates to a poor game for Odegaard.

Norway appoint Hege Riise as women's national team coach


The Norwegian Football Federation (NFF) said it has appointed Hege Riise to take over as coach of the women's national team following their group stage exit from the European Champioship.

Riise, who won the World Cup, European Championship and an Olympic gold medal as a player, would be presented at a news conference later on Wednesday, the NFF said in a statement.


Riise, who coached Britain's women's team at the Tokyo Olympics, replaces Swede Martin Sjogren, who departed the role swiftly after his side suffered an 8-0 defeat against Euro 2022 hosts and eventual winners England.

No details of the length of the 53-year-old Riise's contract were announced.
Top Team prioritizing understanding the home style over anything else.

Cannot wait for this match!!
The USA attack will trouble that English defence taya. They aren't that superb at the back. But they sabi defend setpieces. The English will be superior when standing over their own setpieces too. They are very good there and the USA sometimes go to sleep in that aspect. But Beth Mead.....she will get goals.

Going to be a full stadium


Did you watch the Columbia vs Brazil final? Columbia are really good.

She will definitely retire first before someone else get that no.10

She started wearing it since 2006 you don’t expect her to just drop it like that just because she isn’t the Chikwelu we used to love in Midfield..

By the way I haven’t seen anyone who deserves that no.10 apart from Rasheedat Ajibade.

Ucheibe should be wearing the No.4 if possible
Maybe when Ebi retires Plumptre will drop the no.5 and go with no.5

For Example if a Player like Faith Ikidi comes back to the team now she will get her no.14 back from any young player wearing it..

If Oparanozie returns Onumonu will drop the no.9 ASAP

Until they retires..
Meaning the Ahmed Musa way!.

A better handler will effect this restructure. Also Okeke. So Alozie can play get natural role abeg.

She is the worst player in the super Falcons team, I can bet she's up to 40 years... She's even older than Onome. I don't know why these coaches still have her on the team, as players of her type are a liability to any team they find themselves. I mean, we almost would not have known about Ucheibe just because of her.

Desiree Ellis would have forced her out of her team a long time ago same as any serious coach. Edwin Okon even did exactly that. Rita Chikwelu is one of the biggest problems of the team, and she's blocking the way for hungry, talented up and coming players - I cringe whenever I watch her play.
She don try. That block is why i dey vex too.

“Tickets are now on sale for fans to secure seats to see the United States Women’s National Team take on Nigeria on Saturday, Sept. 3 at Children’s Mercy Park in Kansas City, Kan. as both teams prepare for the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup.”
With all the 10s I've watch at this Euros, seeing her wearing that number is going to be vexing me going forward. Chai.

Well it's not 8-0 anymore 1-0 2-0 that's it nowadays grin i think the 8-0s is what dennerby and waldrum see that make them take a defending approach against the big teams and they ave kept the score down ever since

The world cup own dey pain pass.


Who is close to England's 10, Stanway in our current setup right now, in the SF team? She and Chanda of Zambia play alike.

Sometimes I don't just understand how you people come up with these things.
The 8-0s abi grin


We go det alright. Just that we have so much talent in the mix right now that all it will take may be a manager of her mould, with a touch of mou and wenger. grin


For now, it's just day dreaming.

That's sad really. Very sad.

For this to have gone on for years unaddressed is also worrying

Methinks this isn't unconnected to Oparanozie's removal as captain and eventually icing from the team. This definitely has a way of affecting the dressing room dynamics. If I were coach, it will be the first thing I'll deal with, if not one of them will have to leave the team and it won't be Oshoala.
A serious coach will call both and tell them to declare truce or both will be axed from the team. It happens alot in men's football. I see no Reason why axing based on disciplinary grounds can't be enacted. Especially when it was done to Uwak then. Benzema was on this table then.



I won't lie, both can be axed. Cos which kine beef be dis? E don pass half a decade. Shuu.

Absolutely. Especially seeing the way the Mary gk was very average between the sticks. Hopefully she gets to have a prime world cup.


That handball was supposed to be checked. Dunno why it was ignored.


The good thing is the host country barely had a rep in the var team, unlike Wafcon.

Wining Euro with Netherland, England isn't a small thing, She took Netherland to the Final of the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup in France, Lost in the Quarter final to the US again on Penalty Shoot out at the 2020 Olympics...

She's a great Coach... Randy is not in her Class, Couple with other League trophies she has won in Netherland.

Please don't justify Randy's Failure
People justifying Randy are in same class as those justifying buhari
