Should he be worried for his place?

Newly-promoted Leeds are in the capital.

Spurs fans are clearly upset.

Oliver Glasner has told Arsenal they are signing a player who ‘never hides’ in Eberechi Eze.

Arsenal have beaten Tottenham in the race to sign Eze this week after agreeing a £67.5 million deal with Palace.

The England international has undergone his medical with the Gunners and his move to Mikel Arteta’s side is being finalised this weekend.

Eze, who was part of Arsenal’s academy before he was released at the age of 13, was a key part of Palace’s success under Glasner last season as the club won their first-ever major trophy by beating Manchester City in the FA Cup final.

The 27-year-old has also been one of Palace’s most consistent performers in the Premier League in recent years with 29 goals and 16 assists in his last three seasons.

And Glasner believes Arsenal are getting a player who is capable of handling high-pressure situations.

‘He struggled last year at the beginning of the season but going through this period helped him become a better footballer,’ Glasner said.

‘I spoke very often about the crunch time, I’m a big NBA fan and in the crunch time the superstars are always on the court.

‘When we needed Ebs in the crunch time, he was there.

‘That’s what I will always remember, with great players, when you need them they are always there.

‘Great players never hide, we could count on Ebs in the very important games, this is what he gave to the team and to Crystal Palace.’
