Arsenal were greeted like the beatles here in Kuala Lumpur today as Arsene Wenger’s squad held an open training session.

Each player was greeted with howls of delight as they took to the pitch at the huge Bukit Jalil Stadium ahead of tomorrow’s first game of the Asia tour.

But the locals weren’t in such a happy mood when Denilson came on and he was greeted with a chorus of boos.

once the session got underway a ‘Nasri stay’ chant swept around the 87,000-capacity arena with most of the 15,000 or so fans in attendance joining in.

The session is set to last an hour. Check back for updates live from the ground. By Carl Eldridge In Kuala Lumpur
