The Arsenal players have been continuing their preparations for our crucial London derby as West Ham come to the Emirates Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Unai Emery has endured a tough start to life in the Premier League as we slumped to a 2-0 defeat to Manchester City on the opening weekend before going down 3-2 in a thriller against Chelsea on Saturday evening.

The players showed a lot of character to come from 2-0 down to make it 2-2 at half-time but we were disappointing after the break and sloppy play gifted Chelsea a late winner at Stamford Bridge.

It means Arsenal are pointless after two games so it’s vital Emery picks up his first win in England this weekend when West Ham travel to north London on Saturday afternoon.

Summer signing Lucas Torreira will be hoping to make his full debut after only being named on the bench for the first two games of the season and the Uruguayan international has been tussling with Mesut Ozil in training today.

Ozil has been heavily criticised for his poor performances so far this season and was hauled off against Chelsea at the weekend so hopefully he’s showing some fight on the training pitch to show Emery he deserves to keep his place in the team.
