Arsenal's American defender Auston Trusty has sent Gunners boss Mikel Arteta a timely reminder of his capabilities after scoring a 97th-minute winner in Birmingham City's 4-3 win over Swansea City on Saturday.
Trusty signed for Arsenal just over a year ago from Colorado Rapids but remained with the MLS side on loan for the remainder of last season. He was, again, swiftly sent out on loan in July, this time to the Championship and has won several admirers for his performances under John Eustace in the second city.
Having recently seen Polish prodigy Jakub Kiwior arrive at the Emirates Stadium to add depth to the left-sided defender role, Trusty's heroics could not have come at a better time as he attempts to avoid being forgotten about in north London.
