Gabby Agbonlahor has posted on Instagram that Arsenal fans should ‘look away now’ after Sky Sports reported that Romelu Lukaku is expected to feature against them on Sunday.

Arsenal and Chelsea will lock horns at the Emirates this coming weekend, with the Belgian set to mark his return to the Premier League.

It’s not good news for someone like Mikel Arteta because the Gunners lost their opening Premier League match to Brentford – and it’s not going to get any easier.

Whilst the European champions breezed past Crystal Palace, it’s all doom and gloom for one side of North London.

This Lukaku news will make life that more difficult for the Gunners, as Agbonlahor posted this following message to Lukaku possibly playing.

“Arsenal fans look away now,” said the former Villa striker added with a laughing and crying emoji.

If Lukaku does play then Ben White will be put through his first proper test since his big-money move in the summer.

Things didn’t go as well as he would have liked against Brentford, with Ivan Toney giving the former Leeds loanee a difficult time.

But Lukaku is a different level striker, a thriving international star and a player who won the Serie A title with Inter last season.

Plus, he has unfinished business in England and the £97.5 million man (BBC Sport) will no doubt play like someone who has something to prove.
