Players by the Number

In the coming weeks, I will highlight a player that I feel best represents a specific number for their European club team. In doing so, I hope to create a list that is both entertaining and insightful! This list will be in numerical order and will seemingly end somewhere after the number 1 and before 99. With that, enjoy and feel free to comment. Cheers.

North London Derby

Today features the North London Derby. Should be a fun one. Arsenal will surely look to secure 3 points hosting Spurs. With the Gunners entering the fixture having won 5 of their last 6 games and Tottenham lacking to keep clean sheets against their bitter rival, look for a highly entertaining match. Though I am a huge Arsenal fan, I am excited to see two fascinating opposing players in Rafael Van der Vaart and Jermaine Jenas (no the latter is not a joke, just check out the first goal). Arsenal hope to get a number of players back in action for the game. It will be intriguing to see who exactly gets the start at a variety of positions. With a bevy of counter attacking options, Arsenal should expect to put a few in the back of the net. I know I'll be up and at 'em early in the morning to watch this enticing fixture.
