Arsenal ensured they went into the international break in the best possible way with a comfortable win last weekend.

The Gunners thrashed Crystal Palace at home to move eight points clear at the top of the Premier League, though Manchester City do now have a game in hand. Arsenal fans will be itching for the international break to be over given their team may be just a handful of games away from claiming the Premier League title.

Southgate criticism

Former England goalkeeper Ben Foster is not impressed by Ben White’s omission from the Three Lions squad.

“Every week he is doing it. He’s getting involved in goals. He’s getting involved in assists for fun,” Foster said on his YouTube channel. “He’s playing really, really well, Arsenal are on fire and these are the sort of players that when you are naming your England squad, you should be picking these players in form.

“Whatever happened in the World Cup happened… I’ve got no scoop on this. But something [else] has gone on there.

“It’s just not right. [Gareth Southgate is] selecting Harry Maguire and players like that. It just screams of a fall out.”

Mac Allister claim

Reported Arsenal target Alexis Mac Allister is said to ‘want to leave’ Brighton amid growing interest.

The Gunners, as well as Chelsea, have been linked with the World Cup winner, who has been excellent for the Seagulls this season. According to TeamTalk, via Football365, Mac Allister still has ‘a lot of hurdles to overcome’ if he wants to leave Brighton this summer.

But he is said to want to leave amid reported interest from elsewhere.
