Ex-Rangers trialist scores for Arsenal academy vs Monaco
The Arsenal u21s secured an away win over Monaco to end their pre-season preparations, with a former Rangers trialist getting on the scoresheet. Photo via The Arsenal u21s have had a difficult pre-season so far, partly thanks to the absence of some talented youngsters like Max Dowman, Marli Salmon, Josh Nichols, Ismeal Kabia, and Andre Harriman-Annous due to first-team call-ups. Up until this weekend, the young Gunners had drawn one and lost four of their pre-season games, only scoring five goals across the five games. But the team was much closer to full strength away to AS Monaco II on Saturday, with Tommy Setford in goal, Nichols and Salmon in defence, and Kabia and Harriman-Annous in the front three. None of the five had featured in the previous game against Chelmsford City. Photo byArsenal clearly benefitted from the changes, with Kabia giving the team the lead in the 40th minute, and Setford maintaining a clean sheet at the other end. But it was actually a trialist who secured the victory by doubling Arsenal's advantage late on. Free agent former Rangers winger Archie Stevens was making his second trial appearance for the Gunners, and in the 93rd minute he found space in the box before slotting home for 2-0. Stevens has played senior football before, making one appearance for Rangers and playing 11 times on loan with Scottish second tier club Dunfermline Athletic in 2024/25. It looks like he could now get the chance to play for the Arsenal academy on a more permanent basis, if he keeps impressing. Photo byThe Arsenal u21s recently learned their Premier League 2 fixtures list for the coming campaign, kicking things off with a game against Fulham at home on Friday, August 15th. The team will also play Nottingham Forest away and Brighton at home later this month. The first big derby game is away to Chelsea on October 25th, but there will be no regular season north London derby this season. Photo via Dowman on Instagram The current Premier League 2 format involves 29 teams playing a 20-game regular season, so you don't face eight teams until the play-offs, if at all. This year, Arsenal won't face Aston Villa, Birmingham City, Blackburn Rovers, Manchester City, Manchester United, Middlesbrough, Stoke City, or Spurs in the regular season. But they could still meet some of the above in the play-offs or in other competitions. As for who might be in charge of the team when the competitive campaign gets underway, that much is still unclear. Jack Wilshere is reportedly in the running to return to the club as their u21 manager, but Max Porter and Ken Gillard have taken joint charge of the team on an interim basis for now.

Report: Liverpool teammate backs club star for major end-of-season award
Tsimikas Shares Strong Backing for Salah's Ballon d'Or Bid Amid Liverpool's Future Plan Under Slot Liverpool's 2024/25 season was nothing short of historic. Under the leadership of new manager Arne Slot, the Reds reclaimed the Premier League title and reasserted themselves as one of Europe's most complete teams. Among those who thrived was Mohamed Salah, whose individual brilliance helped drive the club forward once again. As Ballon d'Or discussions heat up, teammate Kostas Tsimikas has now publicly backed Salah to claim football's most prestigious individual honour. The Greek full-back, affectionately dubbed the 'Greek Scouser' by fans, made his views known during a recent TikTok challenge. His endorsement was clear and enthusiastic, reflecting the sentiment of many inside the Liverpool dressing room. Tsimikas shows unwavering support for Salah During a social media video produced for TikTok, Kostas Tsimikas was asked to stay silent until the name of the player he believes should win the Ballon d'Or was mentioned. Tsimikas bypassed names such as Raphinha, Lamal Yamal and Harry Kane before responding once Salah's name came up. 'Yeah I think so [that he is the best player in the world right now],' Tsimikas said with confidence. 'For sure [he can win it], he has a big chance to do it.' The backing from Tsimikas follows an outstanding season from Salah, who finished the campaign as the Premier League's top scorer and top assister. He was also crowned the division's Player of the Year. These accolades underline his massive contribution to Liverpool's resurgence under Slot. While Salah has won almost everything at club level, including multiple Champions League and Premier League titles, the Ballon d'Or has always eluded him. Many within the football community believe this season may finally be his year. Salah's numbers underline his Ballon d'Or credentials Salah's 2024/25 campaign was arguably his most complete. Playing in a slightly more flexible role under Slot, he operated not only as a goal threat but as a creative hub. His understanding with the likes of Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike gave Liverpool a new attacking dimension. The Egyptian's leadership and consistency were vital across all competitions. Beyond statistics, Salah also delivered in key moments, scoring in high-pressure situations and guiding Liverpool through the tightest of fixtures. With many Ballon d'Or voters placing weight on both individual performance and team success, Salah's influence on Liverpool's title-winning campaign adds further weight to his candidacy. In contrast to past controversies like Robert Lewandowski missing out in 2021 despite a stellar season, Salah's contribution is difficult to overlook this time around. Future plan under Slot continues to impress Liverpool's future plan under Arne Slot has quickly taken shape. The Dutch manager, who replaced Jurgen Klopp in May 2024, won the Premier League in his debut season and has already been active in reshaping the squad. Salah remains central to those plans. While players like Ibrahima Konate and Ryan Gravenberch have offered differing opinions on the Ballon d'Or race, Slot's system clearly revolves around getting the best out of the Egyptian star. His adaptability, intelligence and discipline make him the ideal figurehead for Slot's approach, which relies on quick transitions and dynamic movement across the front line. This stability at Liverpool, along with the club's long-term planning, could work in Salah's favour. Ballon d'Or voters may be swayed by not only what he has achieved in the last season but also what lies ahead. With several years still at the highest level, Salah's future at Liverpool looks strong. Photo IMAGO Liverpool unity adds weight to Salah's Ballon d'Or bid Tsimikas's comments are part of a wider show of unity within the Liverpool camp. While Ballon d'Or discussions often divide opinion, especially among teammates and internationals, Liverpool's players seem more aligned than most. Ibrahima Konate did surprise fans by naming Ousmane Dembele as his Ballon d'Or pick, a choice that drew some criticism from Reds supporters. However, Ryan Gravenberch was quick to push back, stating that Salah should be the winner. This backing from multiple teammates signals the respect and admiration Salah commands in the dressing room. Beyond his own squad, fans and pundits across Europe are taking note of Salah's achievements. His status as one of the most consistent players of the last decade remains intact. But with the added success of Liverpool's league title, his Ballon d'Or case carries more weight than ever before. As the ceremony approaches on September 22nd, all eyes will be on Paris. Whether or not Salah takes home the award, his contributions to Liverpool and the wider football world cannot be denied.
