Arsenal fans are apparently delighted to see two key names included in Arsene Wenger's team for their Premier League opener.

The Gunners take on Leicester City at the Emirates, and Wenger has named a very strong team containing Hector Bellerin and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain as wing-backs, with Danny Welbeck playing behind Alexandre Lacazette.

However, it was the inclusion of two players in particular, Lacazette and Mesut Ozil, that got Gunners fans extra excited... and for good reason.

The German playmaker and the club's huge summer signing struck up a great partnership in Arsenal's pre-season tour of Asia.

They consistently found each other with passes - Ozil slotting balls through to the France international whenever he found space.

Lacazette also managed to notch a few goals in the friendlies ahead of the new season, and Gunners fans will be hoping he can do the same on Friday.

For now however, the Arsenal fans are just reveling in seeing the pair lining up together in the first team with Lacazette as a striker, not playing on the wing.

As you can see...
