Eddie Nketiah responds to Gabriel Jesus on Instagram as exciting new Arsenal attack is teased

Trailing by two goals at half-time, despite it being a friendly and the result not of great importance, Gunners manager Mikel Arteta rolled the dice for the second half as he switched to a back three from a back four which included Reiss Nelson and Gabriel Martinelli - natural wingers - operating as wing-backs.

The change in the system was beneficial for many reasons as Arsenal carried much more of an attacking threat and that was largely down to the introduction of £45m summer signing Gabriel Jesus, who instead of replacing Eddie Nketiah as the lone striker, joined the Hale End graduate as part of a front two.
