Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta revealed his players did not know former boss Arsene Wenger would be in the stands for their Premier League win against West Ham.
Wenger was in charge of the Gunners for more than 20 years before leaving his post at the end of the 2017-18 season. He had stayed away ever since, so much so that current star Bukayo Saka never had the opportunity to meet the Frenchman, but made his long-awaited return on Monday.
For a while, it looked as though Wenger might be in north London to witness the Gunners' first home defeat of the season as Said Benrahma fired the visitors ahead from the penalty spot. Three second-half goals saw the league leaders prevail, though, with Eddie Nketiah - a man handed his senior debut by Wenger - completing the turnaround.
