Arsenal news: Jordan blasts Unai Emery, Shkodran Mustafi transfer plan, David Luiz claim

Do Arsenal have the edge over Spurs heading into the North London Derby this weekend?

They may well do, given Spurs' defeat to Newcastle at the weekend, but head coach Unai Emery could have a selection dilemma on his hands prior to the game.

One player could be leaving the club before the match, while the fans will be hoping another goes before then too.

Here we round up the biggest stories from the past 24 hours in the world of Arsenal.

Monreal exit

Nacho Monreal looks set to leave Arsenal in the coming week.

Real Sociedad looks set to be his destination for a £3million fee.

But what will it mean for the Arsenal squad in the short-term and long-term?

It could leave the Gunners short ahead of the North London Derby this weekend, but it also offers opportunities for other players.

James Benge looks at those who could benefit from his departure.

North London Derby

It is the North London Derby at the Emirates on Sunday.

And while both teams will go into the game off the back of defeats last weekend, it is Arsenal who will be the more confident.

After all, they lost away at Liverpool, while Spurs were beaten at home by struggling Newcastle.

Arsenal legend has given his prediction ahead of SUnday's game.

David Luiz claim

Defender David Luiz did not have the best of games at the weekend.

At fault for two of Liverpool's goals, he was given a torrid time by Mohamed Salah.

And he has received criticism from many quarters for his performance.

But he is not shying away from it and he is ready to get back on the horse with his first experience of a North London Derby this weekend.

And he made a big claim ahead of the game.

Jordan slams Emery

Arsenal may have enjoyed a reasonably good start to the season, but it has not impressed one former Premier League owner.

Simon Jordan is a regular on TalkSport and he discussed the Gunners and Unai Emery's approach to management during a show on Tuesday.

And Jordan did not hold back in his assessment of the former Sevilla boss.

Mustafi to Zenit

Arsenal fans would love to see the back of Shkodran Mustafi.

The defender is not popular among the fanbase, having been responsible for a number of mistakes while playing for the Gunners.

There was a rumour that Monaco were interested in signing the German centre-back, but no move has come to fruition.

And the Arsenal fans have taken it upon themselves to try and find a buyer for him.
