🚨 🗣️ Martin Ødegaard refuses to blame Alexander Sørloth for not passing to Erling Haaland in the decisive 2v1
🗣️ Ødegaard: I won’t allow anyone to blame Alex.”
🗣️ People only remember the final chance, but I remember everything he did for this team throughout the tournament. One decision doesn’t define a player.”
🗣️ I’ve seen Erling comfort Alex, and I’ve seen Alex apologise to the boys. That’s football, it hurts, but that’s also why we’re a family.”
🗣️ The badge on the front of the shirt means more than one missed pass. Every player gave everything for Norway tonight.”
🗣️ This defeat belongs to all of us, not one individual. We’ll heal together, learn together and come back stronger.

🚨💣 Bukayo Saka explains why he embraced Martin Ødegaard after the final whistle. ❤️
🗣️ "The quickest run I made all game was after the final whistle."
"Not to celebrate. Not to swap shirts. I just wanted to make sure my captain wasn't standing there on his own."
"People saw England against Norway. I just saw Martin. I know how much this game meant to him because I know how much he loves playing for his country."
"He's always the first to celebrate with us when things go well and the first to lift us when they don't. In that moment, it was my turn to be there for him."
"Football gives you good days and hard days. That's part of the game. But nobody should go through the hard days alone."
"We'll be back together at Arsenal soon. He's still my captain, and nothing about that has changed."
🎙️🚨 Zlatan Ibrahimovic after South Africa beat South Korea to qualify to the next round
🗣️ “I think this is a message to FIFA, they need to bring more African countries to the World Cup. Nigeria should be here too. Africa’s football is different. They don’t play unnecessary passes. when they get the ball, they attack you immediately. That’s the kind of football we want.
Europe’s football is boring, too many back passes and too many tactics. Morocco and South Africa have qualified to the next round. Morocco is the best Africa team in having possession. South Africa is the best in counter attack.
I think an African team will reach the semifinals this year. I’m happy,they deserve it. Africa should be the best, Mbappe should be playing for Cameroon, Olise should be playing for Nigeria and same for Vini too. I wish the whole of Africa luck in this tournament”. 👏
Whilst we wait for the ICAN results, I don’t know which ICAN candidate needs to hear this but if it applies to you, take it seriously.
Learn Double Entry.
The major reason you have issues with courses like FR and SBR is because you don’t really know double entry.
Learn Double Entry.
Don’t be ashamed. Yes, you have an accounting degree. Yes, double entry was a 100L topic. Yes, you’ll feel like you’ve been a fraud all these while for not even knowing the fundamentals.
There’s nothing to lose or be ashamed of when you are seeking knowledge.
You know why you hate accounting standards? And prefer stuffs like statement of cashflows?
It’s because questions on accounting standards will ask you to tell how the transaction will be treated. You’ll end up doing guess work. You might get it right not because you truly know it. It’s because you’ve memorized many questions and answers such that what you’re doing in the exam hall is pattern recognition.
You have always treated accounting like mathematics.
“Anywhere I see revaluation surplus at the acquisition date I will add it to the net assets acquired”
“Anywhere I see intra-group sales , I will deduct the unrealized profit from inventory”
You don’t know why you are even doing these things, you’ve just memorized them like a formula.
Things get complicated when the examiner decides to change the pattern you’ve already memorized.
Whenever IAS 8 is examined as full question, the results usually not impressive because you can’t CORRECT something when you don’t even know how it was supposed to be.
It’s heart breaking to see an SBR student struggling with journalizing.
Learn Double Entry.
Once you crack it, you’re king.
Over time, I’ve offered to give students classes on double entry or ask them to watch videos. At first they’ll feel like they are being demoted. But when they start, they’ll realize they never knew the thing.
If you ONLY think of “receiver” and “giver” when you want to make entries, you need to learn.
In the Premier League, a club can submit a maximum of 25 senior players for the official squad registration (the “25-man squad list”).
But the question many are asking is, why 25? Because 25 in this case is exactly the same number of days since Arsenal won the league title.
Brazil bench Martinelli, They Struggled
Spain Bench Zubimendi, They Struggled
Germany starts Havertz, They won 7-1
Sweden starts Gyokeres, They won 5-1
France Starts Saliba and They won 3-1
You will not succeed without Arsenal🤷🏽♂️
You will get to a point in your career where your number 1 agenda is to invest money and effort in building relationships. You’d get to a crossroad at 10.30pm on a weekend and pick up your phone to call a work buddy, and they’ll pick up, sit with you and help you get through it.
If this sounds odd, it’s not for you.
Arsène Wenger:
🗣️ “There was a time we had £90 million turnover and we had to pay back £22 million per year for the stadium. I couldn’t sleep because we had to qualify for the Champions League to pay back the money.”
🗣️ “We had to sell our best players. Other clubs came in with lots of money but we were on the same level from 2007 to 2016.”
This is why so many Arsenal fans will forever defend Wenger.
While rivals were spending freely, Arsenal were carrying the weight of the Emirates project on their backs. Every summer felt like survival. Every top-four finish felt like a trophy. Every season, Wenger had to replace world-class players while keeping Arsenal competitive enough to secure Champions League football.
🔴 Sold stars. 🔴 Balanced the books. 🔴 Built a world-class stadium. 🔴 Kept Arsenal among Europe's elite.
Many managers would've walked away. Wenger stayed and carried the club through its most difficult financial era.
The trophies are part of his legacy. The fact Arsenal emerged from that period stronger, richer, and ready to compete again is the other part.
Without Wenger's sacrifices, there is no Arsenal of today.
May your prayers be accepted, your goals achieved, and your rivals remain humble. 😌
Meanwhile, somewhere in North London, Arteta is still lifting that trophy and Arsenal are still Champions of England. ❤️🏆
