Arsenal boss Unai Emery has urged Rob Holding to grab his playing chance.
Holding made quite an impression when he came on for Sokratis during the first half of Sunday's victory against Everton.
It was only the young defender's second appearance of the season, but he was calm and composed on the ball as we kept our first clean sheet this term.
Emery was impressed with Holding, and hopes he can take that form into Wednesday night's Carabao Cup tie with Brentford.
"We need every player when chances and opportunities come, because we need to also take more players to play," our head coach said. "Like on Sunday, for example, after Sokratis' injury it was important how [Holding] played and helped the team to find the performance to win against Everton.
"[Brentford] is also a good opportunity for Holding to continue taking confidence, taking minutes and taking also our ideas of playing and I want to look at him also with our best performance, staying in the first XI."
