Ferguson BLASTS Wenger Out fans, Vlahovic transfer race with Tottenham, Watford win reaction LATEST

GOOD MORNING GUNNERS FANS

Emile Smith Rowe has been given a first call-up to England’s senior squad.

The Arsenal playmaker will link up with Gareth Southgate’s men for upcoming internationals against Albania and San Marino.

Smith Rowe could even be set to line up alongside club pal Bukayo Saka for the Three Lions on Friday.

And it is a just reward for his fine form under Mikel Arteta at Arsenal this season.

Elsewhere, Gunners defender Gabriel is another set to make his international bow.

The centre-back has been called up by Brazil for the first time.

Meanwhile, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has apologised to Watford boss Claudio Ranieri after their spat on the weekend.

He said: “I have to defend my players, my team and my club.

“I would say we are the most honest [of] all of them, and at some stages we can even become naïve.

“But still, if he feels like that towards our club, I have to apologise if that’s the case. But for sure there was not any intention to take advantage.”

Finally, Ainsley Maitland-Niles is relishing building a future at Arsenal after putting last summer’s transfer drama behind him.

He said: “That’s all in the past now. I am just thinking about the future and what’s ahead of me.

“It was great to be out there again, getting my minutes, and hopefully there is more to come.

“I’m always happy to be on the pitch and play. It is a good feeling.

“Of course I am looking for more minutes, I just need to keep my head down and keep working hard.”
