Overview

• Captain Martin Odegaard was withdrawn in the first half with an apparent shoulder problem after initially trying to continue.
• Bukayo Saka exited in the 53rd minute with what looked like a left hamstring issue after scoring and was replaced by Leandro Trossard.
• Arsenal have not confirmed the severity of either setback, with evaluations to follow before next weekend’s visit to Liverpool.
• The concerns compound existing issues, with Kai Havertz already ruled out, Christian Norgaard still recovering, Ben White failing a late fitness test, Jurrien Timber on managed minutes, and Gabriel Jesus rehabbing an ACL injury.
• New signing Eberechi Eze was introduced to the Emirates crowd in the No 10 shirt after his move from Crystal Palace as Arsenal beat Leeds.
