This is outstanding news.
At London Colney for Mikel Arteta's press conference and he's just revealed that William Saliba is back in training already.
"Willy trained today, so we have a decision to make (about tomorrow's game). Very good news."

The Speaker of the House of Representative telling elected civil politicians to "yield" to military force.

Mike Johnson: "I cannot for the life of me understand how the Democrats think this is some kind of winning political message. Yield man! Let the troops come into your city and show how crime can be reduced."

Big show of faith by Renee with starting Katie Reid ahead of proven players such as Lotte and Laia.
I’m here for it. I love Lotte, but this is a game where I think Arsenal can give minutes to Katie and trust her to do her job.

Genuinely, has Andrea Berta found where all the cash has been stashed in the mattress?
I’ve never seen Arsenal do anything like this.
I wondered if bringing in a fresh, ambitious outlook in Berta into the recruitment structure would shake the tree.
Looks to me like that tree is shaking.🫨

As a reminder: Trump’s first act was to pardon HUNDREDS of J6 rioters who assaulted and beat DC police officers. Trump’s been responsible for a large percentage of the total assaults (and many of the worst/most brutal) on DC police in the last decade.
Trump: "You know, they love to spit in the face of the police ... They’re standing and they’re screaming at them an inch away from their face, and then they start spitting in their face. And I said, ‘you tell them you spit, and we hit’, and they get hit real hard."
Trump places Washington DC police under federal control and will deploy National Guard – live updates
Trump declares ‘public safety emergency’ despite record crime low; DC mayor says ‘any comparison to a war-torn country is hyperbolic and false’

Chloe Kelly, the ultimate big game, big moment player.
Backs herself entirely. When she’s got a smile on her face, she’s an absolute nightmare.
England, take your time in thanking Arsenal for helping her resurrect her season, her confidence and her verve.
I had zero doubt. Top player.

@tim-stillman.bsky.social Olivia Smith seems like a sharp bit of business, spotting the opportunity and bringing in incredible talent.
We discussed prior to the Euros as to whether we might need to free up minutes for Michelle Agyemang and now Smith too.
Any rumours about who might be leaving?

I have a strong grasp of the favourites and the hosts and will be watching pretty much the whole tournament anyway. Some of the less fancied nations competing I have a fair grasp of- which I could upgrade reasonably quickly if needed 👍
