Arsenal face a crucial clash in their chase for the Champions League when they take on Chelsea at Stamford Bridge tonight.

Manchester United lost 4-0 at Liverpool last night, which saw them drop below the Gunners on goal difference ahead of the big London derby.

Arsenal and United of course face off on Saturday in a game which could also have a huge bearing on the race for the top four.

Ahead of the game, teenage talent Miguel Azeez was spotted in training with the senior squad, with injuries hitting Mikel Arteta’s side.

He was also in the winning team, pictured celebrating with the likes of Emile Smith Rowe and Aaron Ramsdale after a successful session.

It looks like Gabriel was trying to get in on the act before being pushed away by Ramsdale, with Azeez in the background.

Arsenal have of course struggled since the international break, slipping away from pole position in the Champions League chase.

A game away from home against Chelsea is a tricky one to try and get back on track, but there should be no issues in terms of motivation.

It is a crucial period for Arteta’s side, and what a story it would be if Azeez could play some part from the bench and make a big contribution.
