EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image capturing a tense moment during the Premier League match between Watford and Arsenal, during the 2016-17 season. The photograph, taken by Stuart MacFarlane for Arsenal Football Club, focuses on Granit Xhaka's reaction as he looks on intently from the Arsenal bench. The Swiss midfielder, who had only recently joined the Gunners from Borussia Mönchengladbach, appears deep in thought as his teammates battle it out on the pitch. The atmosphere at Vicarage Road was electric, with both teams giving it their all in the early stages of the season. The tension is palpable in this photograph, with Xhaka's furrowed brow and clenched jaw conveying a sense of determination and focus. The contrast between the brightly lit pitch and the dark, moody background adds to the dramatic effect, making for a captivating image that perfectly encapsulates the intensity and passion of professional soccer. This moment likely held particular significance for Xhaka, who had faced criticism from some Arsenal fans for his performance in the opening fixture against Liverpool. The midfielder would go on to become a key player for the Gunners, making 35 appearances in all competitions and scoring three goals. This photograph serves as a reminder of the highs and lows that come with being a professional soccer player, and the unwavering dedication and mental fortitude required to succeed at the highest level.
