Aliyekuwa mshambulizi mahiri aliyewai kuchezea timu ya Arsenal ya Uingereza na timu ya taifa ya Ufaransa Thierry Henry aliwashangaza wanafunzi katika shule moja nchini Wales alipoingia darasani akiwa amevalia nywele bandia (maarufu wigi) na miwani na kuwafunza somo la biashara ya ununuzi.

Wanafunzi wa shule ya upili ya Pen-y-Dre ilioko, Merthyr walipigwa na bumbuazi nyota huyo alipojitambulisha kwao kwa niya ya kumkabidhi mmoja wa wanafunzi wa shule hiyo tuzo la ufanisi katika michezo inayodhaminiwa na shirika la habari la Sky.
Henry, ambaye ni balozi wa masomo wa Sky alimkabidhi Emma Morgan tuzo hilo kwa mchango wake katika michezo. Kipindi hicho cha kuwatuza wanafunzi waliochangia katika michezo katika umri mdogo kitapeperushwa hewani siku ya jumapili katika Sky Sports1.

Muogeleaji huyo atakuwa miongoni mwa wanaspoti watakaotuzwa siku ya jumapili wakati wa sherehe ya kumtuza mwanaspoti bora nchini Uingereza Wales na Ireland. Henry alisema kuwa Emma alikuwa mwenye ari ya kufaulu na hivyo alistahili tuzo hilo. Mwalimu mkuu wa shule hiyo Keith Maher alisema "kila mmoja wetu alikuwa ameahidi kutotoboa siri hii ya wazo lake Henry mwenyewe kuingia darasani na kujitambulisha kama mwalimu mpya wa Biashara ,,,ilikuwa wazo zuri na limeibua muamkompya miongoni mwa wanafunzi.''

ARSENAL DEFEAT

For losing a betting stake worth U.shs 500,000 when Monaco overcame Arsenal football club 3-1 in a European champions league fixture, Deus Ruhinda a resident of Kakiika in Mbarara district did the unthinkable - hung himself to death.
The deceased (Ruhinda) was working in Kasese district, took a decision to terminate his life after losing Shs 500,000 in a European Champions League match bet.
The deceased was a bodaboda (motorbikes used for public transport) rider and the money he staked was reportedly belonging to his boss in Kasese. Upon the news from the bet, he moved back to his home village (where he had left six years back) and committed suicide.

The witness says, Ruhinda, whose mother and father had died was lost for any action as he narrated the incident to his relatives - many of them condemning him apart from the grand mother - Nalongo Geturiida, who expressed commiseration.
He became more angry as the guardians rebuked him for not coming back to see them and vowed never to assist him in any way nor give a single penny to overcome the situation
On Friday afternoon, Ruhinda was found dead hanging on an avocado tree in the family banana plantation. The deceased left behind a suicide note, explaining why he committed suicide but requested his relatives to pay his debt. Local Police was called at the scene and it allowed the relatives to carry on with the burial.

Ruhinda's ordeal is another of the ever multiplying number of suicide, stress and related incidents arising from betting and passionate cheering of sports events particularly football.

The stories of people staking household property, cheaply selling off valuables to raise money for betting and husbands staking wives and children are common.

Arsenal and Manchester City have had numerous connections over the past 30 years, especially with a number of recent high-profile transfers between the two clubs.

Bacary Sagna joined Manuel Pellegrini’s side after his contract expired, we have picked out several Arsenal players who left north London for Manchester City and vise versa over the years.

Samir Nasri

France international Samir Nasri flourished under Arsene Wenger’s guidance and had three productive years with the club before joining City in 2011 for £25 million. He played 125 times for Arsene Wenger’s side and was nominated for both the PFA Players’ Player of the Year and PFA Young Player of the Year award after his breakthrough season in 2010/11.

Gael Clichy

France international Gael Clichy had to wait four years before finally winning a regular starting berth at Arsenal where Ashley Cole had previously blocked his path into the senior side. Clichy then became first choice left-back for the next four seasons before joining Manchester City in 2011 having made 264 appearances for the Gunners.

Emmanuel Adebayor

Emmanuel Adebayor had a love/hate relationship with the Arsenal fans for whom he played in front of for three years. He scored 62 goals for the Gunners before moving to City in 2009 and controversially celebrated in front of the Arsenal fans after scoring against his old club. He stayed with City for three years, but was loaned out to Real Madrid and Spurs during that period.

Kolo Toure

A member of Arsenal’s ‘Invincibles’ team, Toure spent seven seasons with the Gunners and made more than 300 appearances during his time at the club. Toure was also one of the defenders who helped the Arsenal team reach the 2006 UEFA Champions League final after keeping 10 consecutive clean sheets. The Ivory Coast international joined City in 2009 for £14 million.



Patrick Vieira

World Cup winner Patrick Vieira finished his playing career with City before becoming the Blues’ Football Development Executive – but it is with Arsenal that he is perhaps best remembered as a player having chalked up 406 appearances during a nine-year period. He was an integral part of the Gunners’ numerous domestic and European successes in that period.

David Seaman

Former England No.1 David Seaman was goalkeeper at Arsenal for 13 years, playing 656 games for the Gunners during an illustrious career. He joined City in 2003, playing 26 times for the Blues before a shoulder injury forced his retirement from football.

Tommy Caton

Former City youth skipper Tommy Caton broke into the Blues’ first team aged 16 and went to play 198 times for the Club between 1979 and 1983. He then joined Arsenal for a fee of £500,000 and went on to play almost 100 games during his three years at Highbury before later playing for Charlton and Oxford.

David Rocastle

David Rocastle – ‘Rocky’ – was a firm favourite during his time with Arsenal and City, though it was with the Gunners that he enjoyed his best period. Rocastle spent eight years at Highbury, playing more than 300 games before moving to Leeds United. He was swapped with David White in 1993 and spent one season with City before joining Chelsea.

Joe Mercer

Like Alan Ball in later years, Joe Mercer played for Arsenal and then managed City. With World War 2 interrupting his Everton career, he moved to Highbury in 1946, spent nine years with the club and made 275 appearances. A decade later, having moved into management with Sheffield United and Aston Villa, he was appointed as manager of the Blues and oversaw the most successful period in the Club’s history.

Paul Dickov

The former Scotland international joined the youth ranks of Arsenal in 1989 but found first team chances hard to come by with the likes of Ian Wright at the club. After loan spells at both Luton and Brighton, he left Arsenal in 1996 having made 26 appearances and scoring seven goals. The reported fee was rumoured to be in the region of £750,000 and £1 million.

Niall Quinn

Quinn was promoted to the Arsenal first team after scoring 18 goals in 18 games for the reserve team in the 1985/86 season. The signing of Alan Smith in the 1987 close season meant that Quinn found opportunities hard to come by and he subsequently submitted a written transfer request at the start of the 1989-90 season. City signed Quinn for £800,000 in March 1990.

Other connections include Nicolas Anelka, Brian Kidd, Sylvinho, Brian Marwood, Alan Ball, David Platt and ... the list is endless!


Aaron Ramsey says Francis Coquelin's presence in midfield has given him more license to go forward.

The 23-year-old has partnered Ramsey in each of Arsenal’s last two Premier League games, helping Arsène Wenger’s side keep clean sheets in impressive wins against Manchester City and Aston Villa.
However, the Wales midfielder believes the holding midfielder’s form has also benefited the Gunners in attack.

“He’s very solid defensively, wins the ball back and gives it to other players to start off attacks,” Ramsey explained. “He’s done really well, I’ve been really impressed by the way he’s been playing and he’s earned this credit he’s getting at the moment.

“I have that insurance now where I know he’s going to be sitting in front of the back four so it allows me to get forward whenever I want. I try to get back in as much as I can and as quickly as I can.
“I’m feeling stronger every game to be able to do that. The team’s doing really well and there’s a good understanding and level of confidence at the moment.

“We’ve learnt from last season when we left ourselves a bit too open in the big away games and teams picked us off. We’ve proven that against Manchester City - sometimes you have to sit in and get bodies behind the ball to try and frustrate them. I thought we did that really well against City.”

Who is Arsenal`s future right back legend? Is he Bellin, Chambers or Debuchy ?
Gary Neville was full of praise for Arsenal’s right-back Héctor Bellerín on Monday Night Football and it’s understandable why after his recent performances against both Manchester City and Aston Villa.

The Spaniard (19years old) has started five of the seven league games that he has featured in, completing a total of 500 minutes.
Over his seven appearances, Bellerín’s pass completion of 78% falls just short of Arsenal’s overall 84%. His 65% success when tackling far exceeds fellow club right-backs Mathieu Debuchy 47.4% and Calum Chambers 48.5% this season.
His impressive defensive stats continue with 3.24 interceptions and 4.86 clearances per 90 minutes. Bellerín has outshone both Chelsea right-back Branislav Ivanovic and PFA Team of the Year 2013/14 right-back Séamus Coleman of Everton this season. Ivanovic has 1.09 interceptions and 4.3 clearances while Coleman has 1.15 and 3.66.
In Arsenal’s 2-0 away win over Manchester City the right-back had 44 touches with a pass accuracy of 72.2% after making 18 passes in total. During the game he completed 6 interceptions and 7 clearances.
Against Aston Villa in Arsenal’s 5-0 victory the 19-year-old has a pass accuracy of 71.7%, completed 46 passes and had 65 touches overall. He supplied 5 crosses and had one shot on target, scoring Arsenal’s fifth in injury time.

"It is tiring to lose players-whether it be to Man Ciy or somewherr else-it is the same", the Arsenal boss said. Arsenal had Man City Squad and management before Man City.

It is not just the procession of players who have gone there for better money and trophy-winning prospects: Samir Nasri, Gael Clichy, Kolo Toure, Emmanuel Adebayor (ingloriously) and now Bacary Sagna.

There is even an Arsenal influence over the management at City in Brian Marwood and Patrick Vieira. The old jibes about being a feeder club are still raw and relevant.

‘Well, Sagna just left for City, so you can’t say those days are over,’ says Kieran Gibbs when asked if the days of City dominating Arsenal might be past. ‘But you would think from the signings we have made...’

He doesn’t finish the answer but it is put to him that players should believe they can achieve their ambitions at Arsenal. ‘You would hope so,’ says Gibbs.

"We are less vulnerable now, that is for sure," Gunners boss Wenger said.
"In the last two years we bought Ozil and Sanchez - five years ago we would have lost Ozil and Sanchez.

Wenger continued: "I don't think it's bullying - a transfer is an agreement between three parties and they are in a position where they can say no.

"The players end up at the richest clubs. Man United did that for years - they had superior financial power and they still do."

The richest teams are increasingly coming under pressure from UEFA's Financial Fair Play regulations, which inhibit a club's ability to spend more than they earn.
Wenger admits those regulations are starting to influence clubs like Man City but also believes there are loopholes to be exploited.
"It looks like they have some restrictions but they have clever people who can think about how to get around them and they do that very well," Wenger said.

"Time will tell. UEFA have to be cautious as well because of television financial power.
"If you kick a club like Paris St Germain out tomorrow, the French television companies will go to UEFA and ask for their money back.
"It's not as easy as it looked at the start."

Gabriel Paulista say farewell to the Villarreal fans as he is given a yellow submarine as a farewell present
Arsene Wenger has confirmed Gabriel Paulista's switch to Arsenal from Villarreal is expected to be completed Today before FA Cup drawal.

The Gunners have agreed a £13.5million deal to take the Brazilian and despite initials fears regarding a work permit for the Brazilian, the Arsenal boss is confident the move will go through on Monday.
Speaking after the Gunners' 3-2 FA Cup victory over Brighton, Arsenal boss Wenger confirmed to BT Sport: 'They (the reports) are accurate. It is very, very close and it should be done tomorrow.'
Arsenal have agreed a deal understood to worth £13.5million to sign the Villarreal central defender Gabriel Paulista.
Villarreal Website

Although there was no confirmation from the Premier League club an announcement was made by Villarreal who stated that they would be taking the Arsenal striker Joel Campbell on loan for the rest of the season.

It is unclear as to whether Arsenal have resolved the issue of whether or not Gabriel would receive a work permit but the scale of the fee would help their case in arguing the Brazilian - who does not have any international caps - should be allowed to play because he is a special talent.

Joel Campbell
Gabriel is 24 and has been identified by Arsene Wenger as a versatile player to help improve his team's defensive options. It had been thought that Arsenal would not pay more than £10 million, having initially offered £6 million, for Gabriel who has a buy-out clause of just over £15 million but sources in Spain indicate they have agreed a larger fee although they will recoup some money for the loan of Costan Rican striker Campbell.


Santi Carzola alifunga bao moja na kutengeza jengine na kuisadia Arsenal kuicharaza Mancity mabao 2-0 nyumbani Manchester.
Ushindi huo wa Arsenal pia ulisitisha msururu wa kutofungwa wa Mancity wa mechi 12.
Mchezaji wa Uhispania Santi Carzola aliyekuwa moto wa kuotea mbali dhidi ya Mancity alifunga mkwaju wa penalty baada ya beki wa Arsenal Nacho Monreal kuangushwa katika eneo la hatari na beki Vincent Kompany.

Arsenal iliongeza bao la pili katika kipindi cha pili baada ya mpira wa adhabu uliopigwa na Santi Carzola kuwekwa wavuni na Olivier Giroud.
Matokeo hayo yameiwacha City ikiwa na alama 5 chini ya viongozi wa ligi Chelsea.
City na Arsenal walitoka sare ya 2-2 wakati walipokutana kwa mara ya kwanza katika uga wa Emirates mnamo mwezi Septemba.
