Daily Mail | February 14, 2018

It may be Valentines Day but Arsenal's superstars were shown no love by Arsene Wenger on Wednesday, with hard work the order of the day.

While the Gunners are regularly seen larking about on the training field, it was down to business this time around with a match just 24 hours away.

Ostersunds are Thursday's opponents in the Europa League, and Arsene Wenger is expected to send out a strong side as his squad enter the knockout stages.

With that in mind, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Mesut Ozil and Henrikh Mkhitaryan were among the players out on the training pitch, under the watchful eye of the boss.
