I just watched a football training highlight now where a 7 year old player scored his teammate by triple nutmeg in an America Youth Soccer Arena and that reminds me of when the likes of Thierry Henry and Nwankwo Kanu were still in Arsenal. They were few of the best football players Arsenal had in this contemporary modern football career.

It reminds me of a goal that Thierry Henry scored former Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin Van Der Sar whilst he was still playing for the Fulham club. It was a 4-1 match and a grave lost to the Fulham at the Highbury. This was the kind of players that were being nurtured by the Gunners at a point in their club career and that's the kind of thing I want Mikel Arteta to do at this time.

Scout for some of the promising players at a very young age and bring them to speed with their professional career. Arteta can as well go for the 7 year old player and nurture him in their feeder team until he becomes a great player like envisaged by many commenters.

An investment made in one single player sometimes could be equivalent to an investment made in another first XI and that was what Barcelona did over Lionel Messi to have brought him to the benefit and advantage of the club. That was spectacular in the history of football.

The problem was not in the mid but the defensive line has become the main problems that never be solved. MU does have good mid but it will be pretty much useless once mu will not able to have good defenders and goal keepers.
Ten hag is not having choice to use garbage defenders again.
Manchester United weak point this season lies in the back line and goalkeeper, their defenders often make blunders and Onana, who is entrusted with the main goalkeeper position, has not performed optimally. He was the actor in Manchester United's defeat to Galatasaray when he made a wrong ball pass which resulted in Galatasaray being awarded a penalty.
A good midfield and sharp front line will be in vain if it is not supported by a strong back line and the goalkeeper's impressive performance in repelling threats from the opponent. The mistakes that Manchester United players continue to make must be immediately evaluated by Ten Hag, he must immediately make several changes to get the first points in the UCL.
Every thing about Manchester united right now should be focused on Ten Hag, whether it's the defense that's porous, the goalkeeper that is weak or the midfielders not supplying and standardizing the ball or the strikers not being on their feets to score goals. Everything blames should be centered on Eric Ten Hag right now. I am unhappy about the way the club is being managed right now because the club can do better with the current first XI on the pitch. Players like Sancho also need to be back on the pitch and be ready to make goals. It's not s rocket science thing. It's a strategy. Goals are conceived through strategies and teamwork. Manchester united have not enjoyed that yet in this season. Reasons why I don't think they can make it up to the round of 16.

Banned from serie a, terminate from the club, receive 0 salary. I must be awarding this guy caused by he had been successfully destroying himself. Pogba is ballotelli's brother lol.

Im waiting for an official announcement from juventus to kick him out. RIP pogba's career.

I am not impressed by the way the player as performed in his career lately. I don't see reasons why they should be so carried away with the fantasies of life and begin to live life styles that are likely to indict them. But on the other hand, don't you think it's a play of racism over the players. It was N'golo Kante the other time and now it's Pogba and even Ballotelli faced different issues too. These black players have a good playing pattern that has shoot their careers up in any club they found themselves. They're passion to always secure a victory for the club has always been one feature that you cannot take from them. Hence why they become stars in their careers but why will many of them face cases of destruction like you named it. Isn't it a name-calling and why must it be Pogba or even Ballotelli?

But Inter Milan is unstoppable now although they were slipped from Sassuolo few weeks ago i think it won't be affect to their game and today i assume Inzaghi will do some rotation and possibly Martinez will be starting the match from the bench and his position will be replaced by Sanchez and although Bologna is a tough team but i am confident Inter will be able to beat Bologna probably with narrow score but Inter has low odds currently @1.39

Inter Milan in my opinion have shown the spirit of doggedness and sportsmanship since the coming of Jose Mourinho and their victory in the champions league that year. Ever since, the club has been so determined to win more matches and beat many star clubs in the Serie A like the AC Milan. I wonder why AC Milan seems to be scared of Inter whereas I see AC as some cool guys that can cook some delicious dishes and serve it on the tables other Italian clubs. I used to like their games in the days of Gattuso up until 2012.

The issue of Manchester United not being in a good situation in two different competitions is the main concern of all observers and all fans. But there will be a chance for Erik ten Hag regarding rumors that he will be fired. I personally don't care if the end result is that I have to make a decision to fire for the sake of something that can have a positive impact on the future of the club.
The club really doesn't want to lose everything this season.

My attitude is very simple that nothing is higher than the club. If ten Hag has to be fired because he is unable to bring Manchester United to a better situation, I will support that decision.

Although nothing is higher than a club or the management of the club but we've found situations where the club itself have drawn their legs backwards to the point that they seem to be belittled by the players. That's the case of Ten Hag right now. I wonder why it's taking him much time to learn from the days of Sir Alex Ferguson who managed the club for decades ago since before some of us where birthed. And in his years of management, it as always been his target to take the club to the top of all tables. He's carved a niche for the Manchester united and what we expected of Eric Ten Hag was to come and do better but from my own judgment he has done worse because bringing the Red Devils to just the Champions league is not sufficient, a big club like Manchester united should not come to the champions league to be relegated at the buttom of the table in a group stage. Ten Hag needs to do better in the subsequent matches, Bring Sancho on board.

My major problem right now is not about Bukayo saka, although we know saka has been bringing his A game throughout this season. we all know Manchester city is a strong team, but looking at Arsenal's last performance was not giving and I never expected the defeat. Let's watch out, am not going to just judge base on there last performance
I won't be happy to witness Arsenal's match against Manchester City without the presence of Bukayo Saka. I won't enjoy the game to be played like that. Although Arsenal still got Nketiah, Jesus and other strikers on standby, including Nelson who's been performing good too, I wish Saka could be on his feet by then. I want the management to speed up his healing since it doesn't seem to be a very bad injury and warm the player up against the next match. I don't want Arsenal to draw Manchester City but to thrash them which is possible. I also need Arsenal defense to be strong to hold Halaand tight and not give him any space to penetrate the 18 yard. I also want Arsenal to take advantage of counterattacks to win over Manchester City at the first half of the game.

Both Gambling and Trading are two different things. I don't know how you found the two related. Gambling na simply the ability to take sides without thoroughly evaluating the the desired results but through emotions, instincts. In another word, Gambling na hin be the betting and staking of some amount of money over something valuable in the hope of making profit at the game of contest.

While, Trading is simply the buying and selling of goods and services for the purpose of making sales and profit. In trading, you're offering a service for a certain amount of money with the expectations of getting results or better still wooing the customer or clients into patronizing you.

Like gambling, Trading also have to do with more than one person and risk taking, unlike gambling, Trading is when you have something to exchange as a good or service with the other person, either as a merchant or as a buyer. In gambling, you don't have a merchandise but in trading that's the most basic essence of going into the trade, with the aim of selling out your merchandise.

It is at the bases of the aforementioned one will conclude that trading with forex is not gambling but a business of selling merchandise. When you understand how the market flows, you will certainly work towards the success of your trade.

Usually Dembele and Kolo Muani should be able to assist him a lot. If they are all in their best form they can be one of the best attack lines in Europe. But it is easy to anticipate that they will lack consistency. Dembele has never managed to be consistent for more than two months I believe and Kolo Muani has played amazing in Frankfurt, but still owes the proof how he will be doing over the course of a whole season in a club like PSG. The league shouldn't be a problem for him, that is nothing new, but the Champions League as far as I know is new to him and he was pretty bad last game.

Agree. Even the combination of Mbappe + Kolo Muani looks like potentially the best in Europe (and therefore in the world) and I don’t even know what other pair of strikers this duo can be compared with. Dembele has always been inconsistent, but the way he left Barcelona shows that he still has big ambitions and maybe they will help him overcome this and perform well more consistently. So far, PSG is having temporary difficulties, but I continue to believe that the team has greater potential than last year.

And do you guys suggest, Mbappe leaves PSG to another club. If yes, to what club will Mbappe move to. I personally feel Mbappe should exit the PSG by now and move to maybe one of the EP league where he will be faced with more formidable teams like that of Arsenal or Man city. I feel like his being in the PSG is dominating and not necessarily challenging to him. Every player needs that challenge to be able to perform better. And I think that's the same perception that Zlatan Ibrahimovic has over the star players that are migrating the Europe down to the Saudi Pro Leagues and Chinese leagues. In Ibrahimovic's opinion, while talking against the decisions of Ronaldo, Neymar and Karim Benzema having migrated to SPL, saying that Money is not everything. However, that didn't stop them from performing as they are doing well. Although, the reason why they're still maintaining the tempo is because they need to prove even more efforts because of the the amount spent on them and not to lose relevance.
848  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: How can you make profit in forex on: October 06, 2023, 11:10:23 AM
First of all, in order to make profit in forex you don't have or need to be greed. What did I mean by greed? Greed is when you entered the market without setting your stop loss, because you feel the market is going to move in your favor.

As I been see this topic. The first thing that came into my mind na greed. Greediness for life dey cause plenty pitfalls whether na forex investment o abi any other type of investment, applying greed to any business model or investment plan will only makw it look ambitious from the beginning but will be prone to failure at the long run. This is why as a trader or investor, you must identify your stop loss and take decisions when you find them deem fit. Also, don't be dependent on procrastinating when to leave an investment, especially when you have the knowledge on the ups and downs of the market trend. Due to the volatility nature of the forex markets, one must be ready to accept failures regardless of your experience.

Quote
One thing to note is, don't enter market with what you can not afford to loose. Every trader wants to make higher profit but a successful trader don't target much, he takes it gradually till he achieve enough capital. There are some basic skills a forex trader need to have such as technical analysis, fundamental analysis etc. A forex trader should learn the candlesticks I.e what they signifies.
However, forex is a game of loss and profit, so whenever you chest loss do not be discourage because some times if you don't make loss you can't learn

Do not enter the market with what you cannot afford to lose, should be a catchphrase if I'm to suggest. Before you go into any investments as a forex trader, ensure you start little cutting down your high expectations in your profit margins. Expectations do hurt indeed.

The pitfalls are enormous. However, one of the best ways you can mitigate these errors and mistakes is through connecting, networking and make friends with other forex traders in the market. If you try build strong relationship with other successful forex traders, that one go teach you on the trading disciple you need. Particularly in terms of risk and money management in the forex trade.

Whether WHO or not. It is individuals and governments that have come together to form such decisions which becomes an adverse effects on the global population of people. It is almost always a situation of putting the world power countries above the third world countries. It is always about how the bourgeois will become more powerful above the poor people and so on.

When diseases like pandemics or epidemics are created and infested into the people, the end goal of such situations boils down to the ability of big companies to be able to sell out druhs, vaccines amongst other equipments. It used to be another system being compromised to give a leeway to the aristocrats. At most times, it used to be a collaboration of such membeer countries or the collaboration with other leaders of impoverished nations most of which work as puppets against their countrymen and women.

How do you then expect the world to be at peace. When policies are created every day to strengthen those ties in acquiring more wealths and affluence at the expense of lives snd health of the people. Then, goes back to provide solutions to such man-made problems through interventions and vaccinations in the case of viruses. When are we ever going to staop witnessing such pandemics when most of those diseases are man made.

Comparing Arsenal to Manchester United is totally out of the picture, because there's alot of things to comprehend when focusing on similarity. Manchester United have zero points in UEFA Champions League this season, two games and two defeats for the Red Devils, absolutely poor results from them. Erik Ten Hag would pushed better for more positive results in the coming UCL games if he wants to qualify for the next round of the competition. Though UCL football is really challenging for Manchester United, perhaps they can bounce back if they wake up from their slumber.

Why would any one try to compare Arsenal with Manchester United at the moment in time. That's like comparing an Iroko with another flowering plant. What I'm saying in simple terms is that, Arsenal has a way better performance than the Manchester United. I will begin this evaluation with the last match both team had together not quite long, where Arsenal scored Manchester United three goals ahead of the one goal scored by Man U on the beginning of last month. Similarly, Manchester United ar 10th in the EPL table as Arsenal battles for the first position of the Premier league at 3rd position. Thirdly, since the beginning of this season, Arsenal have 5 wins, 2 draws and Zeno losses but on the other side, Manchester United has only 3 wins, Zero draws and four losses? Ten Hag really needs to seat up and go back to his drawing board.


Anyone who watched PSG's matches could have predicted that Newcastle would beat PSG comfortably. We accept that PSG's defense is weak, but I think their offensive line is also quite weak. I think there is no one other than Mbappe. This team is at a much lower level than it used to be.

I predicted Newcastle would score goals. Because I knew that they were much better than PSG in terms of play. If you look at PSG's last league match, you can understand how bad PSG is.

Any one who has been keenly following up with the situations could easily draw into same conclusion before the match started. PSG has gradually become a One Man Squad, meaning Kylian Mbappe and others. This singular act has made the club unattractive to players out there. You can't compare a rising effort and an ambitious Newcastle to a weak PSG. Newcastle is so hopeful this year and I'm sure they will strive to do more after breaking yet another long time record of the team scoring in the UCL since 2003. I expect the Newcastle club to be stronger to win more subsequent matches after they thrashed PSG. Since PSG is a strong force in the table that they should ordinarily be scared of. Now reverse will be the case.

The match between Newcastle and PSG had just began and I don't know why for some strange reasons I feel like the Newcastle is likely to win this game. Maybe this is because in the past 6 games the Newcastle United has three wins, two draws, and one defeat, which is better than PSG's four wins, zero draws, and two losses.
A very interesting match took place this time between PSG and Newcastle. Most people would definitely think that PSG would be superior. But it turns out, Newcastle played really extraordinary this time. However, the match is still ongoing, up to the current minute in 82', Newcastle is still leading the match with a score of 3-1. This is really surprising because Newcastle can be that superior. However, Newcastle must remain calm and not be careless, because there is still time for both of them and no one knows what will happen next. At the very least, Newcastle must continue to strengthen their defense in anticipation of PSG scoring goals. So if they can maintain this position, they will win. Currently, PSG is really dominating the match and it looks like Newcastle is focusing on defense.

I was marveled by the performance of Newcastle United at the pitch yesterday. That I predicted that Newcastle United was going to win yesterday game, I did not expect it will be this much. PSG is indeed not in good form while Newcastle is in good standing. It is a warmth celebration to the club to thrash PSG. This will be another achievement the club has made since their last win in the Champions League since their 2-0 over Barcelona in 2003. I don't know if PSG is still on between their arrangement with Mbappe to help determine the first XI. If that's still the case, something needs to be done for the club to be more attractive to other star players. Else, PSG might not go far in this season of Champions League.

Well done, Newcastle boys. You guys played awesomely yesterday with the 4-1 win.

I am still wondering why it is gradually becoming a trend for women to come out to the public to accuse and raise charges against players for the case of rape. While Dani Alves, Mendy and Greenwood are still suffering from similar cases, the Al Nassr star player, Cristiano Ronaldo has been dragged to the court again, for the same issue. After Ronaldo had earlier vehemently denied the claims and went ahead to pay Kathryn Mayorga a whooping sum of 275,000 euros in the past suits, she has resurfaced again in the court. This time around requesting for a higher payout. I don't know why she's shamelessly dragging him over and over again but those close to Cristiano Ronaldo have continously described the sexaul encounter between them as consensual.

But I still insist on why all of these accusations and why those all end up in compensations to be paid to them. As much as I don't take Ronaldo as my best player, I don't agree with the claims made by the lady. For me, it's more of why can't ladies leave them alone? The fortunes made by CR7 is as a result of undivided hardwork but because he spent some time with her a while ago and she feel she can't have him back, she's then blackmailing him with the rape case?

What's actually going on with ladies, players and the rape cases these days?

Newcastle vs PSG & Dortmund vs AC Milan in Group F tonight, the group of death. I’ll be mostly focused on these games. I think they’re the most interesting in many ways.

I have a bit of a soft spot for Celtic so I’m backing them to beat Lazio too. You will find it hard to see a better atmosphere than Celtic Park on a European night. Hopefully they create a cauldron of noise to unsettle Lazio.

Maybe this is because in the past 6 games the Newcastle United has three wins, two draws, and one defeat, which is better than PSG's four wins, zero draws, and two losses. This has in another way given me the feeling. Newcastle's struggle in this game will be for a win, so they can move up to the table in group F, whereas PSG's passion to win will be majorly for the club to remain at the top of the table. While Mbappe is used to start of the match by Luiz Enrique, Marco Asensio will not be able to join the game as he's currently suffering from injury. Whether that will be of disadvantage to the club or not, depends on how manager, Enrique gets a better subtitute.

All clubs in the SPL will have the same ambition, namely to win a trophy at the end of the season, the top five standings are very competitive at the moment. Week 9 will happen soon, the standings are likely to change again significantly, I think. The match between Al Ittihad and Al Ahli will be an interesting one to look forward to, Al Nassr will have a slightly easier opponent, Abha Club.

If Al Ahli draws with Al Ittihad, then Al Nassr will move up one level but with the condition that they must succeed in getting points by beating Abha Club. For Al Hilal, who currently leads the standings, I think they will remain at the top because the chance of winning over Al Akhdoud is quite big.
I am very confident that Al Nassr will take the Saudi Pro League trophy back home because the team is very promising now. Like I have mentioned earlier, the club needs a stronger goalkeeper. It will be of more advantage to the club. Having Sadio Mane and Cristiano Ronaldo combined in a club like this was a great decision.

Ettihad also have Karim Benzema and N'golo Kante and the club is also doing awesomely as far as this season is concerned. My evaluation for now is based on these top rated players. They are strikers that are promising and have elevated the league as a whole. Meanwhile, I want to follow the challenges to the end of this season. I am already predicting Al-Nassr and Ettihad at the finals.

It was a really great game and Napoli certainly didn't deserve to lose. If Osimhen had realized his moment when he hit his head almost point-blank, Napoli would not have lost at least, but unfortunately Real were really more lucky. we should note the actions of Bellingham in the moment of the first goal, when he fought for the ball and gave a pass to Vinicius, who realized his moment.

Valverde's goal in the final minutes was also beautiful, although with a ricochet, but a great shot under the crossbar and from the goalkeeper into the goal.
If it were another club like Braga or Union Berlin, Napoli would have done better than it did in the last match. Unfortunately, they were faced with Real Madrid, who's also hungry for goals at this moment, at it won't go well with Ancelotti's performance to allow the big team face the shame at the group C Qualifier. Although Napoli remained a strong fight for them, they were able to repeat a win over Napoli again, after both clubs had met in 2017 UCL and Real Madrid thrashed Napoli 3-1 in both rounds. With the efforts put by Valverde, Bellingham and Vinicius, Real Madrid was able to maintain the lead of the table. I don't think Napoli will be threatened for now but they need to warm up against Union Berlin on the 24th of this month to remain firm in the league.

It seems Manchester United will not qualify for the next round, sure they have a chance if we talk about the probability, but it's high unlikely. They don't have second strategy e.g. new goalkeeper and new defenders, so they will keep use their current poor goalkeeper and defenders.

At least, Hojlund didn't get bullied like Mudryk since he can show his capability Cheesy
I am not happy with the performance of the Manchester united club this season. I don't expect such 'big club' remaining at the buttom of the table in group A. Like, what exactly was the club doing that the English team could not win over Galatasaray yesterday at the Old Trafford stadium. That was a damaging loss to the team to allow Galatasaray take on that advantage. I am no confident on their round of 16 qualifiers. The club seem to be ready to take a break and retire from this years Champions league.

If Icardi had won that penalty he missed, that would have worsen the situation for the Red Devils as it will be 4-2 by now. Same way Bayern Munich trashed the Red Devils in their last challenge. Ten hag is not setting a good record in the Red devils this year. Ten Hag, for the first time, led the Red Devils to start the Champions league group-stage with a zero point at the bottom with successive defeats, a point behind Copenhagen, four points behind their yesterday visitors and 6 points behind Bayern Munich who's leading the group A table.

Those corpers are supposed to be the most secured citizens of the country, at the time, especially as they wear that uniform, like other workers under government assignments, would be protected.

E dy pain me say we still dey go for all these things when government call on them, abi the NYSC no get right to say no all these government related things? I still dy ask, e really dy comporsary to go serve still come out to continue dy suffer as if them do wrong for the nation?
No work instead nah hustle wey no dey related to wetin these our brodas and sistas go school for, e make sense?

Make I pause here, make una talk something for this matter...
Since NYSC don become compulsory to dey eligible to get government work for Nigeria, plenty of us no get choice than to go for it. In the middle of attending the program, some us our young people wey get passion go wan take more assignments or go to PPAs that are somewhat closed to vulnerable areas and as such, prone to attacks. Na why if government wan follow my opinion, I go say make em ban this NYSC stuff since it has almost defeated it's purpose. Mainly of which is to promote national unity. How many of the Corpers they actually stay for their PPA, without relocation?

Na wetin make me too go look for connect on how dem go carry me go place wey near home as I been dey serve back then. Because as we beem dey serve, issue of insecurity was still at its peak and I was ready to forfeit it if I didn't get what I wanted, which was a place near home. So, before we go mobilization, dem help me put me for where close home. Like that was actually better for me. But looking at it broadly, that has somehow defeated it's purpose since I could easily serve close to home, without having to travel to the other side of the country.

Abeg, I support that legislative motion wey been suggest say make them Ban NYSC. Since it has lost its main purpose.

This na serious mata guys, we dey see how many influencers the spring of in the Nigerian scene well many of them dey entertain us no doubt and there is nothing bad with all that, I am a big fan of comedy content and I have followed many of the social media content creators that entertain me with comedy videos and as they get popular they want to monetize their talent well that's not a bad thing.

My issue here be say many of this content creators then turn to social media influencers and not just that they influence platforms that pays them without even checking wetin them dey influence, the result is they get richer and their followers who joins such gets hurt.

No matter how you like or enjoy any content creator this does not make them genuine, they get paid for everything they endorse (it's not free), if you must use what they endorse always make sure you do a very extensive research about it.
Na so e dey be. Make we say plenty of these things are caused by the proliferation and non-regulation of the contents that are flown over the social media platforms. The ministry wey supposed to dey at least checkmate these things for the masses no really dey function like that, for that reason, plenty people dey see say dem fit advertise anything wey dem bring come for them, especially as far as money go dey involved. Dem no wan do plenty research on the standard of the company wey them dey advertise

They're called influencers not financial advisers so make we no dey believe everything dey post blindly without doing our own research. If dem talk say A na black, no just believe but do your own finding before you believe dem. This guys are hustling, most of dem are newbies like us but dey just have a large social media following so dem dun take dat pros become influencers.

Even when dem dey free like the project no pay dem for the promotion wey them dey do, no forget say most projects get a referral commission program wey anybody fit use to make money from affiliate marketing. E just dey like 1xbet wey we dey see many influencers dey promote, most of dem no get any official partnership with the company but just affiliate marketers that get paid through referral commission so make we no dey believe anything wey we see.

Your first paragraph dey so, so give me joy my oga. But the truth be say, even many of them dey put am as disclaimer say them. Them no be financially adviser,, so make people no dey take their words serious since them. Having said that, plenty content creators no dey do better background check on wetin dem they promote for social media and na that non- charlatan attitude na him make dem no dey care. We don see plenty situations where influencer go dey write long note from lawyer say him dey disassociate himself with product. And na why I fit agree say, Although Davido and Wiskid dey collect adverts too o. But dem dey do proper investigation before entering into working for them.

Manchester united is still struggling to beat their opponent,  despite the squads they use to start the game and the game ended up draw 1:1 in the 45 minutes. Real Madrid is showing Napoli that they are not small team they can beat easily in this UEFA champions league because, Real Madrid is leading the game with 2:1 to calm the stadium down for their fans to seat comfortable in their various seat. If Real Madrid can maintain this solid defensive through out the game it will be the thing of joy for them to celebrate for topping their group table because, once Napoli make some changes in the second half they may use the opportunity to draw the game 2:2 , and that is their major target in this second half if Real Madrid are not careful.
Of all the matches played today, between, Man united Galatasaray, Real Madrid and Napoli, Arsenal and Lens. I am more impressed with Real Madrid's win over Napoli. They showed that spirit of consistency even though the goalkeeper was close to a flop. I didn't know how Ancelotti has been able to manage Kepa in this match. Like seriously, he conceived early goals like no other. That's quite unprofessional of a goalkeeper playing for such a big club.

However, Vinicius my guy, was able to warm the club up with the first equalizer. Then, Jude Bellingham made the fans proud by netting the second goal. I enjoyed the way Bellingham pushed the ball forward from the 40 yards out and maneuver his way through to the 18 yard and scored a fantastic goal. Last of it was the effort put by Valverde and unavoidably assisted by the Napoli player to cause an own goal.

Btw currently Arsenal are still losing 2-1 to Lens and it looks like my multi for Arsenal and Madrid failed in this second match because the score is still unfavourable for Madrid and Arsenal.
I'm not impressed at all with the way Arsenal played it's match today. I wasn't impressed with the manager as well. All I was expecting was a straight win but otherwise happened. Although Lens had the struggles of holding the match, but Arsenal had all it takes to control the game. Loosing over Lens is not encouraging for the UCL. Unfortunately, Saka went off injured and had to leave the match from the first half. That I felt was part of the reasons why the team could not hold it stronger. I would not say, Vieira didn't try, but Arsenal needed more striking force. This further commensurate my opinion that Arsenal needs more squad depth to take this league. Especially from the Saka's angle.
