Unai Emery reveals what will stop Arsenal from making top 4 this campaign

Arsenal manager Unai Emery has warned his camp that defeat to Everton will be a huge blow to the Gunners chances of making top four in the Premier League.

Emery's men travel to Goodison park and if they rack up all three points from the encounter, it would propel the Gunners back to third place.

"I am very realistic. We are in a good moment . It depends on Sunday as well, these three points, but now each match is very important for that," Emery said, according to BBC.
"If we win, we are third. If we don't win, we can't hold this position," he said.

The ex-Paris Saint-Germain handler remains confident that if his boys turned up on the occasion they will secure maximum points against the Merseyside club.

"It depends if we are efficient on the pitch if we are — for 90 minute — competitive, then I think we can achieve these three points.

"But it's a long way to go and we need to be positive, but also realistic and the reality is that Sunday is a very big challenge and a very big opportunity now. We are going to continue in our way and Sunday is the first," Emery said.

Though Arsenal sit fourth on the table with a game in hand, the difference between third and sixth placed Manchester United is just two points.

This highlights the significance of the Gunners facing defeat at this point of the season.

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that German football star Mesut Ozil has been declared as an ozone player at Arsenal after missing 22 Premier League games for the Gunners since November 2017.

The former Real Madrid star has played just three Premier League games outside of a 100-mile radius of Arsenal in the last 17 months.

Ozil joined Arsenal from Real Madrid in 2013, and in February this year, he hit the headlines after missing his 100th Arsenal game.

According to the report on UK Sun, statistics show that Mesut Ozil is reluctant to play outside London despite earning £350,000-a-week.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
