SOUTHAMPTON RATINGS: Alex McCarthy, 6 – A mixed game – started off well with an outstanding one-on-one save after Lacazette broke free inside the opening minute. But made the wrong decision to leave his penalty area leading up to Saka’s strike before half time that put Arsenal ahead. Reuters

Yan Valery, 6 – A first Premier League start of the season for Valery, but perhaps didn’t do his game or chances of remaining in the first-team much good when Saints return to full strength with a sub-standard performance. Admittedly came up against a much-improved Arsenal side, though. EPA

Jack Stephens, 5 – A poor giveaway of possession allowed Arsenal to equalise in quick time after Southampton took an early lead. Fans will be frustrated by a certain lack of energy and enthusiasm to get the ball away from dangerous areas in sufficient time. Will enjoy better days. EPA

Jake Vokins, 6 – A first Premier League start since Saints’ 1-1 draw with Brighton in July 2020. Although the hosts conceded three goals, Saints’ fans can take plenty of encouragement from a generally sound performance from Vokins. Plenty to learn still, though. AFP

Pepe, Saka and Lacazette all on target as Arsenal claim all three points

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says Bukayo Saka possesses leadership qualities beyond his years after the teenage winger produced another impressive performance in Tuesday's 3-1 win at Southampton.

Jeff Hendrick 4, Miguel Almiron 7; Raphinha 8, Patrick Bamford 5: Ne

The 19-year-old scored in the first half and assisted Alexandre Lacazette's close-range effort in the second to help secure the victory that lifted Arsenal to eighth.

"He's really humble, respectful and at the same time has that character to demand the ball, to make decisions that are not very usual for his age," Arteta told reporters. "We need that leadership and he's gaining that with his attitude.

"He's all the time asking to train more to improve in areas that he can do better. That was certainly one, producing the final bit in the box to score or assist.

"If he's able to do that with the intelligence that he has, with the work rate that he shows on the pitch and with the capacity that he has to understand the game in different positions, then he becomes a really different player."

Arteta said midfielders Emile Smith Rowe and Thomas Partey would be assessed ahead of Saturday's home game against Manchester United after being substituted due to "discomfort".

Arsenal are on 30 points, five behind West Ham United in fourth place, the final automatic Champions League spot for next season. (Reporting by Arvind Sriram in Bengaluru; Editing by Peter Rutherford )

Children who witnessed blood bath want to help others

Aged just 11, Khulood Al Najjar’s daughter, Nora, bravely attempted to fight off Philip Spence. Her finger was injured when she put her hand in between the claw hammer and her mother’s head.

As a vital witness, she was forced to relive the ordeal by police who needed to identify the attacker and ensure he was found guilty.

Now aged 16, Nora has decided she wants to dedicate her career to helping other victims of crime.

“It was very horrible for her. She saw her mum, dying, just next to her eyes. But now she just wants to go forward,” said Khulood, speaking about how her eldest daughter was dealing with the trauma of the incident five years ago. “She is saying, 'mama, I want to be a lawyer, I want to help people achieve justice'.”

Khulood’s youngest daughter, Fatima, was seven at the time of the attack and attempted to help paramedics responding to the incident.

“Now she wants to be a maxillofacial doctor,” Khulood said. “She said to me ‘it is because a maxillofacial doctor returned your face, mama’. Now she wants to help people see themselves in the mirror again.”

Khulood’s son, Saeed, was nine in 2014 and slept through the attack. While he did not witness the trauma, this made it more difficult for him to understand what had happened. He has ambitions to become an engineer.

Tailors and retailers miss out on back-to-school rush

Tailors and retailers across the city said it was an ominous start to what is usually a busy season for sales.
With many parents opting to continue home learning for their children, the usual rush to buy school uniforms was muted this year.
“So far we have taken about 70 to 80 orders for items like shirts and trousers,” said Vikram Attrai, manager at Stallion Bespoke Tailors in Dubai.
“Last year in the same period we had about 200 orders and lots of demand.
“We custom fit uniform pieces and use materials such as cotton, wool and cashmere.
“Depending on size, a white shirt with logo is priced at about Dh100 to Dh150 and shorts, trousers, skirts and dresses cost between Dh150 to Dh250 a piece.”

A spokesman for Threads, a uniform shop based in Times Square Centre Dubai, said customer footfall had slowed down dramatically over the past few months.

“Now parents have the option to keep children doing online learning they don’t need uniforms so it has quietened down.”
