Arsenal defender White: Trossard and Jorginho has offered us great options

Arsenal defender Ben White has hailed the impact of their January signings.

Arteta is expected to rotate his squad, and his ability to do so has been boosted by a strong start from January signings Jorginho and Leandro Trossard.

“I think anyone that is playing in this Arsenal team is good enough to be playing week in, week out," defender White told Stadium Astro. “It's great to have options.

“I had seen him (Trossard) at Brighton and the talent that he had. It's nice to see it every week now. It was an amazing performance [to beat Everton 4-0 on Wednesday], a nice feeling."

Arsenal's lead at the top of the table could be cut to two points by they time they kick off on Saturday, with City hosting Newcastle in the lunchtime kick-off at the Etihad.

There are now just 13 games to go in the title race but, asked if Arsenal are feeling the pressure, White said: “No. We are just doing what we have done all season and we keep pushing. It's nice being at the top, but no one is getting carried away."
