Former Arsenal defender Auston Trusty is eager to get one over his old team.

The American arrives at the Emirates Stadium with Sheffield United on Saturday for a Premier League clash.

As his team looks to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Manchester United, Trusty is excited about a reunion with Arsenal.

Trusty stated: "I'm excited to go back and play them, to do my thing. I'm looking forward to us getting a result, that is my mindset. Then I can say 'hi' to everybody."

He added on their chances in the game, coming off a narrow loss to Manchester United: "We were disappointed not to get at least a point [against Manchester United]. But you saw a spark, something we can build on. We are upset with the result but we have momentum now.

"When a team is in a position as we are right now, you want to see grit, determination and fight. We played Manchester United in that game and that's what you see; without it, you don't have a chance."
