Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is expected to place a lot of faith in young midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga with a start away at Manchester United on Sunday afternoon.
Just a fortnight ago, the Gunners had a plethora of options in the middle of the park and Lokonga was actually some way down the pecking order. Fast forward 14 days, injuries to the likes of Thomas Partey and Mohamed Elneny have thrust Lokonga into the spotlight ahead of a pivotal clash at Old Trafford.
The majority of the Arsenal faithful assumed reinforcements would be purchased given the fact that at the time of the injuries the transfer window was still open.
