Sam Greenwood is delighted with his first weeks at Arsenal.

The striker left Sunderland last month for the Gunners, despite trialling with Manchester United.

He told Arsenal match programme: "I was both excited and apprehensive about coming down from Sunderland to join Arsenal. Leaving my town, friends and family was quite daunting, it felt like a big task, but I was keen to push myself and now that I'm here I feel fully settled.

"Even where I live in digs in St Albans, it feels busier than back home. I live in the home of our landlady Rachel with Alfie Matthews, who is also a scholar. That's been a big help because we talk about all things football and support each other.

"I'm very much enjoying being at a big club like Arsenal. It's a big challenge for me and I'm relishing it. I'm at a club where I feel I can take myself to a new level."
