Paul Emerson:"It's either they kill the two to get shot on target against Arsenal. Arsenal rivals should find another solution on how deal with this backline because it's going to be a nightmare to score Arsenal.
Arsenal has one slogan you score first against them then they attack you with 12 men plus Mikel Arteta or they score first and they defend with 12 men plus Mikel Arteta.
l love this mentality, this define the champion, they do things on their own ways, against Nottingham forest Arsenal forward couldn't score but Gabriel and Konsa were there to score and immediately they dropped at the backline.
Don't hate Arsenal, gave them credit.

UPDATE: Former Chief Justice Alfonse Owiny-Dollo has urged communities in Northern Uganda to embrace shea nut farming and preserve shea nut trees instead of cutting them down for charcoal production. Owiny-Dollo noted that shea nuts could provide the people of northern Uganda with better economic returns than charcoal. He made the remarks while officiating the launch of the Climate-Resilient and Sustainable Shea Landscape of Northern Uganda programme funded by Conservation International (CI). The $32.4 million programme will be implemented by the Ministry of Water and Environment and initially will focus on four districts: Pader, Agago, Kitgum and Otuke, where shea nut trees are commonly found. The initiative aims to promote sustainable management of shea nut landscapes while strengthening communities' resilience to climate change and supporting livelihoods through the sustainable use of shea nut resources.

Without adaptation, droughts become hunger crises, storms become debt crises, and heatwaves become killers.
That’s why we must triple adaptation finance, embed resilience in every policy, budget and infrastructure decision, and extend early warnings to every person on Earth by 2027.
