How Arsenal got on in the first half of their Emirates Cup pre-season friendly clash against Sevilla at the Emirates Stadium.

Gabriel Jesus: A bit of a surprise that he did not take the penalty. Bukayo Saka: Won the penalty from which he scored and made no mistake when the ball was presented to him from close range to double his tally. Ben White: Was a bit sloppy in possession at times, lost the ball in a dangerous area shortly after Arsenal had taken the lead and would have been relieved to see it lead to nothing.

Although Alexandre Lacazette assumed the role as Arsenal's foremost leader, the Gunners didn't officially name a new club captain after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was stripped from the role in December of last year. Have you been following England's progress to the final of the Women's Euros? Been cheering on Lionesses captain Leah Williamson, tournament joint-top scorer Beth Mead and the other Arsenal players taking part? Although only 23, Odegaard is already the captain of his country and the Norwegian will be looking to use that experience to help lead Arsenal to new heights.

How Arsenal got on in their Emirates Cup pre-season friendly clash against Sevilla at the Emirates Stadium.

Bukayo Saka: Was on the receiving end of a painful-looking tackle from Marcus Acuna right at the start of the second half, but was fine to continue. Granit Xhaka: Took up some advanced positions, had every right to question why a teammate wasn't on the end of his ball across the face of goal. Martin Odegaard: Not as effective in the second half and, in truth, was a little wasteful in front of goal as he spurned two decent chances in quick succession. Produced some crisp passes and almost claimed an assist for Granit Xhaka with a lofted ball over the top. William Saliba: Another confident showing from the young Frenchman. Cool as a cucumber in possession, always in the right place at the right time. Ben White: Brought the ball out of defence a lot more after the break, was willing to show support in attack and came very close to scoring the goal of the game but looped his effort a yard wide of the post.

Bukayo Saka gave the Gunners the lead from the penalty spot on 10 minutes after being shoved in the back by Karim Rekik, brother of young Gunner Omar.

Our new number 14 tapped into an empty net having been set up by Martinelli who had sprung the offside trap thanks to a fine pass by Xhaka. Arsenal were well on top by the time we added a fifth, Jesus rounding off his hat-trick by clipping home from close range after a half-cleared corner fell to him. — afcstuff (@afcstuff)July 30, 2022 — afcstuff (@afcstuff)July 30, 2022 — afcstuff (@afcstuff)July 30, 2022 — afcstuff (@afcstuff)July 30, 2022

We have had different conditions as well, we were in Germany and we had to acclimatise with the weather there, and we went to the US and it was the same, now we play with different context and atmosphere as well, so in general I feel like the team is prepared. He gives us a different option to play within the role in different spaces, and I’m really happy to have him. He’s a perfectionist and a really demanding boy, I know him so well, and after that he brings qualities that we didn’t have in the squad. He’s used to winning - winning is the only thing and winning in the right way. He’s also the captain of his national team and I think it was the right call, and I’m proud to announce that because I think he’s a really good person to deliver that commitment to the club. Obviously, we have recruited Oleks in that position and we have Kieran as well, which is two really strong players in that position, and we believe that Nuno’s best solution was to do that. You cannot do that if players at the front are walking, they are not tracking, they don't have that instinct and that intention to provoke things that we want and Gabby is phenomenal at that. Now we are using him as a nine, he can play as a winger, off the left and the right. You can see the way they look for him on the pitch, on and off the ball, and what he's able to transmit as well on that pitch so I am really happy. We prepared to play against a team that has been very, very successful in the last few years, that has a huge European experience and we wanted a different test. The moment we give it away it's about how the team reacts, how compact we are, how willing we are when that press is beaten to get back and be compact again. Te games you have to play within the game is something different and it's good preparation for us, and there were many moments within the game that went for us.

Every word from the manager's post-match press conference after we beat Sevilla 6-0 to win the Emirates Cup.
