Arteta said: “I wish we could have him [against Sunderland], but we have the limitation with the numbers that we can have. “He will have his chance, he will have his minutes, and he will have to earn them like anybody else. “We know the talent that we have, we know the player that we have there, and we need to help him and find a way to make sure that he continues to develop and help the team.” But with just six minutes of senior football under his belt this season, he was on the scoresheet. Noni Madueke added a second to put Arsenal in total control in Suffolk. And then Dowman slotted in another within two minutes of the start of the second half. Comment now
