Gabriel Jesus: A bit of a surprise that he did not take the penalty. Bukayo Saka: Won the penalty from which he scored and made no mistake when the ball was presented to him from close range to double his tally. Ben White: Was a bit sloppy in possession at times, lost the ball in a dangerous area shortly after Arsenal had taken the lead and would have been relieved to see it lead to nothing.

ARSENAL stepped up their preparation for the competitive season by thrashing Sevilla on Saturday. · All or Nothing Arsenal: Mikel Arteta delivers dressing room ...

The 23-year-old skipper will lead the young Gunners into the new season with 18 months of experience under Arteta in the bank, and early signs show that he will have no problem handling the added responsibility. Sometimes an orthodox left-back, others a left wing-back and occasionally drifting into central areas, Zinchenko should have no trouble adjusting to Arteta's complex demands both in and out of possession. Marquee summer signing Gabriel Jesus gave those in attendance a real treat by netting his first goals at the Emirates in an Arsenal shirt. While experienced campaigners like Xhaka were still vocal throughout, the Norwegian was able to lead by example and put on an accomplished display. Arsenal hammered Sevilla 6-0 at the Emirates on Saturday to continue a promising run of pre-season form in front of their own fans. Putting a behind-closed-doors defeat against Brentford at London Colney to one side, Arsenal fans have had plenty of positive signs to stew over in recent weeks.

A Gabriel Jesus hat-trick helped us on our way to an emphatic victory to claim the Emirates Cup.

We’ve had some good games, we’ve beaten two good teams now lately, and we’re playing well, so of course we have a good feeling but we have to stay calm, we have to stay humble, and keep working hard." “They are going to hopefully love every player, for the commitment and everything that they try to give on that pitch. I think that connection is being built because they know that the players transmit what they are willing to do." Copyright 2022 The Arsenal Football Club plc. And after giving the majority of supporters their first glimpse of his famous telephone celebration in Arsenal colours, he was at it again two minutes later. White almost put the cap on the result when a clever free-kick routine saw him attempt to lob Bono but it drifted wide, but in the final minute a sixth was added when Xhaka showed good skill to play in Martinelli, and after carrying the ball 40 yards the Brazilian unselfishly squared to Nketiah to complete the rout.

We have had different conditions as well, we were in Germany and we had to acclimatise with the weather there, and we went to the US and it was the same, now we play with different context and atmosphere as well, so in general I feel like the team is prepared. He gives us a different option to play within the role in different spaces, and I’m really happy to have him. He’s a perfectionist and a really demanding boy, I know him so well, and after that he brings qualities that we didn’t have in the squad. He’s used to winning - winning is the only thing and winning in the right way. He’s also the captain of his national team and I think it was the right call, and I’m proud to announce that because I think he’s a really good person to deliver that commitment to the club. Obviously, we have recruited Oleks in that position and we have Kieran as well, which is two really strong players in that position, and we believe that Nuno’s best solution was to do that. You cannot do that if players at the front are walking, they are not tracking, they don't have that instinct and that intention to provoke things that we want and Gabby is phenomenal at that. Now we are using him as a nine, he can play as a winger, off the left and the right. You can see the way they look for him on the pitch, on and off the ball, and what he's able to transmit as well on that pitch so I am really happy. We prepared to play against a team that has been very, very successful in the last few years, that has a huge European experience and we wanted a different test. The moment we give it away it's about how the team reacts, how compact we are, how willing we are when that press is beaten to get back and be compact again. Te games you have to play within the game is something different and it's good preparation for us, and there were many moments within the game that went for us.
