William Saliba back to France for National League Cup

Football enthusiasts are already counting down the minutes till domestic play resumes later this month. The September international break is frequently the worst of the football season. Teams have only recently begun their season, and fans who have already experienced league action in the early weeks of the season are anxious for more.

Nevertheless, the elite leagues are on sabbatical until next week. While there are competitive games all over the world, they pale in contrast to club action, especially with a North London Derby between Tottenham and Arsenal on the first weekend back. The Gunners travel down Seven Sisters Road to face their fierce rivals Tottenham Hotspur, hoping to continue their unblemished start to the season.

Spurs will try to strike an early dent in Arsenal’s title challenge and rapidly recover from a 2-1 loss to Newcastle last weekend. One of the biggest discussion topics before of the match at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is which team has the better centre-back. Both sets of supporters will fight for their respective star defenders, with Spurs fans firmly behind Cristian Romero. The Arsenal fans will fight tooth and nail to defend William Saliba.
