Emery on Bellerin, Tierney and Holding

It was a significant night on Tuesday as we welcomed Hector Bellerin and Rob Holding back into first-team action - while Kieran Tierney made his debut.

All three made a big impression as we beat Nottingham Forest - and Unai Emery praised the trio and believes they will make a big impact.

"It’s amazing news," our head coach said. "It was amazing to see the people’s reaction to Rob Holding, Kieran Tierney and Hector Bellerin, who played his first 15 minutes [at the end].

"It was a great moment. We can be a better competitive team with them.
