Max Dowman is in line to start Coventry gameThis type of thing has happened before at Arsenal, where a young player has seized an opportunity in pre-season and never looked back. Arsenal had a certain 17-year-old coming through, Cesc Fabregas, who used pre-season to establish himself as a first-teamer. Similarly, in 2010, Fabregas was away after winning the World Cup, and Jack Wilshere got an uninterrupted pre-season. Should Mikel Arteta start Max Dowman on the opening day against Coventry? This is the area where he feels most natural, so Dowman and Saka can absolutely co-exist in the same team.
