Eberechi Eze is nearing a move to Tottenham Hotspur, but the Crystal Palace FA Cup hero's past comments about Arsenal are unlikely to go down well with their rivals

Arsenal star Ethan Nwaneri will be under pressure to deliver at the Emirates Stadium this season after the Gunners opted not to pursue a transfer for Eberechi Eze. The 18-year-old enjoyed a breakthrough season in north London last time around and penned a new contract in the summer.

Reiss Nelson, Jakub Kiwior, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Fabio Vieira, Albert Sambi Lokonga - five men who previously had a part to play at Arsenal, all absent from the squad to face Man United at the weekend.
