The English Premier League is back and excitement among football supporters across Ghana is reaching fever pitch as we count down until the newly promoted Brentford take on the Gunners at home at the Brentford Community Stadium this Friday night at 20.00 pm.
Arguably the most competitive league in the world, the prospect of a new season brings a renewed sense of joy, hope and even despair for football fans all over the world as the drama unfolds on and off the pitch over the next nine months. Will Jack Grealish live up to his price tag? Will Harry Kane be stuck at Spurs forevermore? Can Raphael Varane steer Manchester United to a long-awaited premier league title? Can Liverpool keep up the pace and continue to challenge for the title without Salah, Mane, Keita & Matip when the African Cup of Nations kicks off in January?
So many questions and so many unknowns. However, football fans are never shy of an opinion, a prediction or engaging with some footy gossip and transfer speculation and there is no better place to be and experience it all than on Twitter. Before, during, and after each big match, Twitter is What’s Happening!? and will feature premium content, real-time reactions and the best conversation as Ghanaian football fans cheer on the return of their favourite players and teams from the Premier League.
To make the matches even more entertaining and prepare football fans for the lengthy in depth debates, we have compiled a list of some of the best features on Twitter to help get the most out of the season.
Twitter Spaces
We’ve always followed people for their Tweets and now Spaces, the live audio conversation feature on Twitter, lets you hear their voices and talk about what’s happening now and what’s most important to you – live. From Tweeting to talking, reading to listening, pundits, journalists and supporters alike can host and engage groups to discuss all the special highlights and relive the beautiful Premier League moments that capture the supporters’ imagination. Spaces give supporters the chance to hear people’s voices and opinions, which will bring football conversation and banter on Twitter to life in a completely new way.
Twitter Emojis
Words provide endless ways to express what you’re thinking or feeling. But sometimes a simple emoji paints a thousand words. When your team scores that incredible ‘worldie’, look at our exhaustive list of Twitter emojis when words are just not enough to describe your feelings.
