The first pre-season game at the Emirates for Arsenal as they welcome French Ligue 1 outfit Lyon in the Emirates Cup.
This game comes after a successful mini-tour to the USA and a good crowd will be looking for the momentum to continue following three wins and a draw in the States.
Surprisingly there is no first start for new signing Dani Ceballos and no start for Mesut Ozil either. It is good to see Willock start again and a return for Guendouzi.
Not sure about Mkhitaryan and Xhaka starting but who knows, they may surprise us today.
? Here it is – our team to play @OL #EmiratesCup ?

Overall, that looks like a decent lineup, let’s hope that the defence does us proud today as well.

Thanks alot for the streamlinks. Could you please link all season? Haha. I’m from Norway and it’s too expensive for me to pay to see live PL. Or maybe give a tip about a good site
Interesting line-up
No Mustafi and Ozil is good
They said khedira is at the emirate not trying to say anything am just saying what I read online.
I believe the coaching crew is testing something out
Visit atdhe.ru for any football match.The only disadvantage is the ads you’ll initially see but once you’re done closing them everything is fast and reliable.No problems
kev any update on pepe and especially tierney? i am really about tierney what is the latest news about him? when will he be unveiled as an Arsenal Player?
*worried
1-0 auba
And some wants us to sell him
Tierney will go through barring any hijacking from other clubs and pending medical.
Pepe barring any hijacking will be an Arsenal player.
when will they be arsenal players?
I cannot believe Emery continues to play Mik and Socratis who contribute precious little for the team.
Sigh
Thanks for the tip! Quality ok?
Thanks @Admin Martin and @kev for the links
I think Emery would use 4-3-3 or 4-1-2-1-2
Game might be on YouTube too, give it a try if other links fail.
Regarding the team, I’m a little underwhelmed that Mhiki, Sokratis and Nacho are playing as wanted to see some of the youngsters.
Heres another

Nice through ball by Guendouzi there to Willock
Lacazette injured.
And some people were saying we should sell Aubameyang.
Arsenal always play well when there is no hard tackle and intimidation from the opposition at home
Xhaka still could not release himself from a tight space and he could only create forward passes when he was not surrounded
Looking forward to Ceballos’ action. I hope his playmaking is one level above our midfielders
dont miss mustafi … though defence just doesnt look solid … xhaka should not be within a thousand mile radius of an arsenal shirt … static weak and zero vision … slows down midfield gives time to opposition … willock looking decent but tbh he needs a full year somewhere in my books to gain confidence … some nice touches by nelson and guinduzi lively in the middle .. want to see cabellos on for xhaka
Aubamayang???
Wasteful finishing again by Arsenal should have been 4-0 up by half time.
Lyon 2-1 with 10 minutes to go. Martinelli goal ruled out for off side. Aubameyang miss by inches from difficult lob.
Aubameyang doesn’t look like he’s slowing down. I think the combination of Aubameyang and Lacazette can give us a nice tally of goals this season
I hope Pepe (if he comes) and Ceballos can help them with assists, crosses, through balls
This guy Auba has really settled to our style of play. Its a shame he came to us late, guy would have almost broken Henry record
He could still break it?. He ain’t slowing down
kev tierney is confirmed?
@Adajim, i was thinking the same thing if only he has been with us when he was around 24 he would have easily broken Henry records, I know some say he only score tap in but the guy is so good when, I will actually choose ahead of laca anyday I know most people prefer laca but doesn’t strike me as a player who can score 20+ goals a season in the premier league, if only arsenal had a very good winger last season auba could have easily scored 30+ goals last season.
The wings belong to pepe and reise nelson…considering how well Nelsons played today..
At least the sticks iwobi gets would be lessened.
Willock looks good.
Guendozi proving a point..same as nketiah
Mihki..fantastic today..tomorow could be another story
I hope laccas injury isnt serious..
Sign Dembele please
I’m surprised anyone wants to join us after that shit !
Guendouzi excellent….Xhaka useless
FT Lyon 2 Arsenal 1
Some promising performances, but the game lost due to too many wasted chances to score and lousy defending of a corner kick,
