Arsenal held their final first-team training session today ahead of tomorrow night’s Carabao Cup third round tie at home to Doncaster Rovers.

As expected, several youngsters were in attendance, with Reiss Nelson, Joe Willock, Marcus McGuane, Josh Dasilva, Eddie Nketiah, Matt Macey and Deyan Iliev all called upon along with schoolboy goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo.

Nelson is the only member of the quintet who has already featured competitively for the first-team, while McGuane, who has played at centre-back for the U23s of late, has yet to be called up to the senior squad.

With regards to first-team players, Laurent Koscielny, Alexandre Lacazette, Hector Bellerin and Sead Kolasinac were all rested from the session, while Mesut Ozil, Danny Welbeck, Francis Coquelin and Santi Cazorla missed out through injury. Jeff Reine-Adelaide and Mathieu Debuchy didn’t train.

Petr Cech Nacho Monreal, Shkodran Mustafi, Aaron Ramsey, Granit Xhaka and Alex Iwobi, who started against Chelsea last weekend, all trained along with David Ospina, Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Alexis Sanchez, Olivier Giroud, Mohamed Elneny, Per Mertesacker, Theo Walcott, Jack Wilshere, Rob Holding, Calum Chambers and Chuba Akpom.
