Viktor Gyokeres and Martin Zubimendi make their Premier League debuts for us as we take on Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday.
Our Swedish No. 14 starts up front, while Spaniard Zubimendi is in the midfield alongside Declan Rice and skipper Martin Odegaard. The duo become the 915th and 916th players to represent our men's first team, while three other new arrivals are all on the bench.
David Raya starts in goal behind a back four of Ben White, William Saliba, Gabriel and Riccardo Calafiori. Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli are either side of Gyokeres.
Kepa Arrizabalaga, Cristhian Mosquera and Noni Madueke are also potential debutants on the bench, while Christian Norgaard is not in the squad.
The hosts include new signings Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo from the start, but fellow new arrival Benjamin Sesko is on the bench. Former Gunner Ayden Heaven is also among the subs for Manchester United, who have named Altay Bayindir in goal with Andre Onana injured.
