Arsenal have been working hard in training this week ahead of their Premier League clash with Swansea City at The Emirates Stadium tomorrow afternoon.

The Gunners go into the game in a good run of form. A late goal against Burnley saw Arsenal continue their winning form and extend their unbeaten run of form to nine games – stretching back to the opening day defeat against Liverpool.

One player who will be looking to catch the eye in training is young French midfielder Jeff Reine-Adelaide.

The 18-year-old featured on the bench against Burnley in their last outing and is now clearly a member of the Arsenal first-team picture.

He has a good bond with fellow youngster Alex Iwobi. The Nigerian international has made a big impact at Arsenal this season and Reine-Adelaide will undoubtedly be looking to emulate such a rise to success as his good pal.

Also featured in training were German pair Shkodran Mustafi and Mesut Ozil – clearly enjoying themselves.

Whilst Santi Cazorla made the mistake of standing next to first choice goalie Petr Cech. Little and large indeed.

Arsenal fans will hope their players can do the job v Swansea this weekend.
