💪 WILLIAM SALIBA RETURNS — HUGE ARSENAL BOOST!
Saliba completed 45 minutes for Arsenal's Under-21s against Aston Villa as he continues his recovery from a back injury.
The French defender impressed with his passing and composure, taking another important step towards a first-team return.
With Gabriel and Ezri Konsa performing so well, does Saliba walk straight back into Arteta's starting XI?
⭐ MAX DOWMAN STARS AGAIN!
What a performance from Arsenal's teenage sensation!
Dowman scored once and assisted another in the Under-21s' 5-2 victory over Aston Villa, demonstrating his exceptional creativity, dribbling and attacking quality.
The 16-year-old has also earned an England Under-21 call-up ahead of fixtures against Portugal and France.
How high is Dowman's ceiling, and should Arteta be giving him more first-team opportunities?

✈️ GABRIEL & BRUNO — INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL MADNESS!
