Good morning and happy Friday to you all. The internationals have started up, and here’s all the Arsenal involvement I can find thus far.
Ghana 0-1 Angola: Thomas Partey played the full 90 as Ghana were beaten by an injury time goal in an AFCON qualifier.
Scotland 2-3 Poland: I saw Jakub Kiwior was taken off at half-time in this game, and I worried we might have suffered another injury. However, a quick search for his name on social media and the translate tool suggests he was taken off because he didn’t play well. I don’t know exactly what the Polish words for ‘disaster’ and ‘total crap’ are, but that’s what was being said.
Serbia 0-0 Spain: David Raya played the full 90 in this one.
Later today, William Saliba could line out against Italy, and he could face his new teammate Riccardo Calafiori. Skipper Martin Odegaard will be in Kazakhstan with Norway, while Gabriel might be in action for Brazil the far side of midnight when they take on Ecuador.
Let us say an Interlull prayer that all play well and suffer no aches or strains, no twists or sprains, and that they feel invigorated and full of an unshakable desire to win a North London derby.
There’s not much else going on, but I saw a story about former young Gunner Gedion Zelalem has been released from his contract by Den Bosch, and he’s now a free agent at the age of 27. He made 4 appearances for Arsenal, including one in the Champions League. That was on December 9th, 2014, when he came on as a half-time sub for Mathieu Flamini in the 4-1 win away to Galatasaray.
It’s kinda mad to think that was almost 10 year ago. We had Emi Martinez, a very young Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Alex Iwobi on the bench, and a young man named Stefan O’Connor made his one and only appearance for the club when he replaced Mathieu Debuchy with about 15 minutes to go. It was also the night when Aaron Ramsey scored what remains one of the most aesthetically pleasing goals you will ever see.
