Freddie Ljungberg has named Granit Xhaka and Mesut Ozil in his first starting XI since taking over as interim boss. #FreddieOut is trending on Twitter as Arsenal fans want him out of their club following his first line-up as interim manager.

One change that will delight Arsenal fans is seeing Alexandre Lacazette restored to the starting line-up.

He is expected to occupy the lone frontman role.

But another who's luck is out is Sokratis -  the Greek centre-half takes his place on the bench alongside Tierney and Pepe.

Emiliano Martinez, Lucas Torreira, Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinez are also among the replacements.

But the general reaction to the team wasn't too good, with some even tweeting "Freddie out".

Another posted: "WTF is going on here", while another wrote "Ok this is not what I expected".

Nick Tasper joked that "Emery is still in charge behind the scenes," while many described the XI as "a letdown".

Pepe not getting the shout to start seemed to annoy many Gooners, while Mustafi starting wasn't a popular one.
