Lewis-Skelly says Arsenal's attacking options are "frightening" ahead of Man Utd clash

Arsenal defender Miles Lewis-Skelly has backed his side to be ruthless in attack as they seek 3 points against Manchester United.

The Gunners secured a 3-1 win over last year's finalist Inter Milan on Tuesday night, maintaining their spot at the top of the Champions League by six points over second placed Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.

Arsenal have been unstoppable this season and are top of the UCL, Premier League and remain in the EFL Cup and FA Cup as they compete in every available competition.

Gabriel Jesus scored two goals in the first half whilst fellow striker Viktor Gyokeres bagged the third as Arsenal’s attack ran rampant.

Speaking ahead of the United clash this weekend, Lewis-Skelly has rallied his side to keep their performances up as they face a side who beat Manchester City 2-0 last weekend.

"It's frightening for me to see all the options we have up top. That's another strength of ours, our depth.

"Every player is happy to play, every player is happy to support, and that's why we're such a good bunch.

"It was a massive (statement). Before the game, we knew it was important to send a message to the rest of our competitors, and I felt like we did that.

"We keep taking steps in the right direction.

"Every game now is huge, and we just want to get another win, send more messages to the rest of our competition, and that is what we're trying to do, and that's what we're going to do."

Arteta, whose side hold a seven-point lead in the league will have to decide between Jesus and Gyokeres for the clash in what is a nice dilemma for manager Mikel Arteta.
