Football Players Who Will Prove Critics Wrong this Season

By Richard C. Banda 

Football has become one of the most fast-paced result oriented sport in the world. And this new normal has not been a piece of cake for many professional footballers across Europe. With the media on the other side, the unremitting scrutiny has proven to be a bit too much to hand for most football players.



But just like anybody else, these footballers have performing way below par. And simply because we believe in what they can offer, surely they will bounce back to their prime. Let us share with you some of the players whom we believe they will bring back their A game again.

 Ousmane Dembele

When he came to the Camp Nou, as one of the most expensive signing of the transfer window there was jubilant in Catalans. But life in Barcelona has been a roller coaster drive for Ousmane Dembele.  The French international has been marred with injuries one after the other. Also he has been given some sticks for lack of discipline. And that has made him to be left out in the squad on many occasions.

Now that Koeman is the new man in charge at Barcelona, we are likely to see to Dembele featuring in the new coach’s plans. With a 4-2-3-1, formation Dembele might have a role to play and we might finally see him giving out his best this new season.

Paul Pogba

 Paul Pogba has been labelled one of the world-class players of our time and no one can take that away from him. His sheer ability to command the midfield is actually stunning. But for the past few months that haven’t been the case for the World Cup Winner. The Frenchman has been on a downward spiral with some sombre performances.

But with Manchester United buying Van Beek surely Pogba will up his sleeves and fight for his place in the team. Therefore, we are surely going to see the best of him this season.

A Stuttering Europa Win for Arsenal, As Spurs Slumber

 By Richard C. Banda Arsenal took more than half an hour to test Dundalk goalkeeper Gary Rogers in a 3-0 win at the Emirates on Thursday night Europa League group stage encounter. Eddie Nketiah, Joe Willock and Nicolas Pepe found the back of the net for the Gunners in what proved to be an unconvincing win for Mikel Arteta’s side. Reiss Nelson’s corner kick gave Eddie Nketiah a brilliant chance to step in the box and stamp a simple tap-in from a close range, before Willock put Arsenal on the driving seat with a 2-0 victory before the break. Nicolas Pepe buried the game with a stunning strike to put the Gunners on a firing front. Even though Arsenal found the back of the net three time. Their perfomacne was not really convincing considering the number of shots they had on goal and how they dominated possession. Player ratings Arsenal:  Runarsson (6), Cedric (6), Mustafi (6), Xhaka (6), Kolasinac (7), Maitland-Niles (5), Willock (8), Elneny (6), Pepe (7), Nketiah (6), N...
