Arsenal had four players called up to Gareth Southgate's England squad on Thursday, the joint-most alongside reigning Premier League champions Manchester City.
Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe and Aaron Ramsdale all retained their places in the side from the last international break while Ben White was recalled to St. George's Park. Arsenal fans will now be watching on hoping to see their stars in action against Ivory Coast and Switzerland in the coming weeks.
Saka has become a regular in Southgate's side and impressed during Euro 2020. Having missed the crucial penalty against Italy in the final, many were concerned his form may drop, but he has bounced back impressively, scoring eight goals and providing a further five assists in the Premier League.

While Ramsdale has been a regular in the England squad in recent seasons, he is yet to displace Jordan Pickford as the nation's number one. But with Everton struggling at the foot of the table and the former Sheffield United man establishing himself in Mikel Arteta's side, could a switch be on the horizon?
The fact Arsenal boast the joint most players of any club in the squad is further testament to the brilliant work being done at the Emirates - both in the academy and in the transfer market. It has also seen a prediction made by Arsene Wenger nearly 12 years ago finally come true.
In November 2010, Wenger spoke of the excellent homegrown talent in his side and, although the names mentioned did not exactly have the impact predicted for the national team, he was clearly on to something.
"I feel that we have four or five players who can be the backbone of the English team," Wenger said via MailOnline. "[Kieran] Gibbs, [Theo] Walcott, [Jack] Wilshere and we have some other young players behind who can do that."
