In Arsenal’s last match against Stoke City, there was a new face on the substitutes' bench. Having completed his move from Swiss side Basel, Mohamed Elneny was included in the matchday squad for the first time.
Arsenal fans could be forgiven for not being entirely sure just how the 23-year-old will fit into their team. Having plied his trade in Egypt and Switzerland, he has not had huge exposure on British shores.
What’s certain is that he will be fielded as one of the two deeper central midfielders in Arsene Wenger’s 4-2-3-1 system.
