Max Dowman is, rightly, grabbing plenty of action as he comes through at Arsenal. But Marli Salmon is another excellent prospect, too. Piece on his rise ahead of tonight's game at Fleetwood: www.thesun.co.uk/sport/408217...

Martin Zubimendi has had rotten luck with injuries this season. www.thesun.co.uk/sport/408155...

Arsenal are playing at Highbury - but it’s not what you think! Enjoyed doing this on Fleetwood’s home: 🎶 Captain Pugwash goal music ⁉️ The stand built in front of a stand 🇮🇹 Fabio Capello’s involvement 🦐 Hospitality for away fans 👇🏻 www.thesun.co.uk/sport/408143...

Spoke to Ben White after Arsenal’s win over Everton: 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Hunger for an England recall 😢 Tears after his knee injury in May 🏡 Wanting be at Arsenal forever 🔁 Benefit of rotating with Timber 👇🏻 www.thesun.co.uk/sport/408064...

You may have spotted a few Arsenal players promoting this on their socials yesterday. A great cause for a young Gunners fan ❤️ www.solvingkidscancer.org.uk/children/Zach/

Gabriel and Konsa have quickly formed such a good partnership at the back. Both excellent in Arsenal’s win over Everton. Player ratings: www.thesun.co.uk/sport/407965...

Bit of an odd one. Calafiori finished the game at left wing, with Madueke behind him at left-back. Italian has now gone straight down the tunnel after the full-time whistle. Hopefully not an injury.

Full-time Arsenal 2-0 Everton The Gunners move level on points with Premier League leaders Manchester City. A good performance and a deserved win. Thought Madueke did well, again, and the two centre-backs of Gabriel and Konsa were excellent - at both ends of the pitch.

Gabriel seems to be okay for now, so Mosquera putting his tracksuit back on...

Gabriel clears a cross with a big stretch and goes down holding his left hamstring. Mosquera coming on.

Madueke looking a different player to a month ago. Playing with so much confidence and freedom.

Gyokeres has been given the assist for Konsa's goal. Two assists in two games for him now.

Arsenal team is out. Gyokeres starts, as do MLS and Merino. Calafiori, Bruno G and Havertz benched.

Interesting insight from Bruno G about he and Rice rotating roles game by game: “Like me, he can play as a No6, No8 or No10 - everywhere in the midfield.  “Against Bayern, I played more as a No6, he played more as a No8. But I enjoy playing with him a lot.”

Spoke to Bruno Guimaraes last night. Great insight from him on his tearful Newcastle goodbye and the sleepless nights that led to it. "I never felt so loved like the way I was at Newcastle. I hope I can have the same love here at Arsenal." More here: www.thesun.co.uk/sport/407761...

Arsenal squad stayed overnight in Germany last night - as was always the plan. Bukayo Saka due to undergo a scan today. Left Allianz Arena without need of crutches. Mikel Arteta addressing the media tomorrow. www.thesun.co.uk/sport/407751...

Arsenal team is out. Two changes from the team that won at Nottingham Forest. Timber in for White. Madueke in for Eze.

Bit of UEFA Youth League action happening next door to the Allianz Arena. Bayern Campus, as you’d expect, is a great setup.

Harry Kane is predicting a “special night” this evening as he prepares for a showdown with Arsenal. He will be hoping there’s another special one next week when the Ballon d’Or winner is finally announced. Preview from Munich of Bayern v Arsenal: www.thesun.co.uk/sport/407496...

Arteta says Hincapie could make the Everton game this weekend.

David Raya is here for his press conference. Starts it by sending his best wishes to Vincent Kompany and hopes he gets well soon.

Arrived in Munich ahead of Arsenal’s match here tomorrow night 👌🏻

After seven Premier League games this season, Eberechi Eze has played just 130 minutes and is to yet create a chance or register a shot on target. The talent is clear - but getting the best out of Eze remains a challenge for Mikel Arteta. Piece: www.thesun.co.uk/sport/407417...

Thierry Henry and Kate Scott confirmed as the host presenters of next week’s Ballon d’Or ceremony in London.

Job done for Arsenal. Attack could not click today, which leaves questions going forward. Defence still so, so good - though. Konsa slotted in so well.

Eze off for Madueke at half-time.

Half-time Forest 0-0 Arsenal The Gunners had over 70 per cent possession in that half, but not a shot on target. Not for the first time this season, they have not got going in the opening 45 minutes of a game. Arteta may have to turn to his 'finishers' once again.

Arsenal team is out. Eze keeps his place on the left. Raya; White, Konsa, Gabriel, Calafiori; Guimaraes, Rice; Saka, Odegaard, Eze; Havertz

Morgan Gibbs-White not in the squad for Forest.

Positive fitness update from Arteta: Hincapie evolving well, but won’t be back this weekend. Zubimendi could make it, though. Tzolis also doing well after another scan yesterday. Saliba on right track, too, and has an MRI next week to check progress.

Mikel Arteta has his best ever set of ‘finishers’ - and it shows. In 10 games this season, Arsenal have scored 7 first-half goals, but double that after the break. Piece on the Gunners’ new firepower: www.thesun.co.uk/sport/406838...

Arsenal have informed staff that 60 people may lose their jobs. Certain departments, such as community and foundation, not at risk. More here: www.thesun.co.uk/sport/406833...

At the Emirates - Olivier Giroud speaking shortly.

Mikel Merino has proven himself to be the most versatile player in Arsenal's squad - and he could have to be again depending on Kai Havertz's injury. But how he is so tactically flexible? The answer lies in his father and his attitude. Piece: www.thesun.co.uk/sport/404935...

Interesting stuff from Myles Lewis-Skelly to @meninblazers.bsky.social on how he uses breathing techniques to cope with any nerves before matches. www.thesun.co.uk/sport/404625...

Jamie Carragher is right - Mikel Arteta is the don of the Premier League right now. And agreeing a new deal with Arsenal is a sign of Arteta's ambition to strike now while the time is right. But how long will his dynasty last? Piece here: www.thesun.co.uk/sport/404642...

A question a few Arsenal fans have been asking: Just how bad are Tottenham?! As ever, @DeanoDecides has the answer. 👇🏻 m.youtube.com/watch?v=nLAf...

Premier League fixture changes for November announced. Newcastle v Arsenal now 5.30pm on Saturday 21st. Not great for away fans, especially after Sunderland away was 8pm on a Saturday.

Piero Hincapie not part of Ecuador squad for their friendlies over the upcoming fortnight. On bench at Brighton over weekend, but did not play. Only just returning from groin injury, so will stay at Arsenal to get fully fit and ready. www.thesun.co.uk/sport/404448...

Marli Salmon has withdrawn from England's Under-18 squad due to injury.

Declan Rice has withdrawn from the England squad for the upcoming games. One of four players to do so.

On the subject of midfielders, Brighton seemingly done it again with Chema Andres. Thought he was brilliant against Arsenal and, at 15.5m, looks like a bargain in this market. No wonder he is called 'Baby Rodri'.

Arsenal are stacked for options in midfield now - and part of the challenge is going to be finding the right blend each week. Mikel Arteta may need to adopt a horses-for-courses appraoch. Piece from Brighton: www.thesun.co.uk/sport/404422...

Full-time Brighton 3-0 Arsenal A chastening afternoon for Mikel Arteta's side. They were off the pace and were ruthlessly punished by Brighton. Fair play to the hosts, who were excellent in and out of possession. Interested to hear Arteta's comments after this.
