Arsenal fans tell Eddie Nketiah the same thing after drawing Leeds in the FA Cup third round

Arsenal were drawn to play Leeds United in the FA Cup third round on Monday night, and Gunners fans all knew what that meant.

Eddie Nketiah is currently on loan at Leeds, but struggling to get game time with manager Marcelo Bielsa preferring Patrick Bamford up front - despite a fairly meagre goals return for the striker.

But it raises the prospect of Nketiah facing his parent club at the beginning of January - unless he is recalled by the Gunners before the tie.

The ties will be played across the weekend of Friday January 3 to Monday January 6, 2020.

Nketiah still has not started a Championship game for Leeds, with his only appearances in the starting XI coming in the Carabao Cup ties against Salford City and Stoke City, where they were knocked out on penalties.

Despite that, he has added three goals in the league in 11 substitute appearances to go with his two League Cup strikes.

Arsenal were quick to send a tweet out to the striker, who responded in kind shortly after. And the fans are all saying the same thing to the England Under-21 international.
