A new era has begun at Arsenal following the dismissal of manager Unai Emery and the appointment of club legend Freddie Ljungberg as his replacement albeit on a temporary basis.

Freddie Ljungberg is expected to make his bow as the Arsenal manager when they travel to face league newcomers Norwich City in one of the Premier League Matchweek 14 games scheduled to take place on Sunday.

The dismissal of Unai Emery was inevitable after results nosedived with the Gunners winless in the last seven games in all competitions including the disappointing 2-1 defeat at home to German side Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League.

That Europa League game turned out to be his last game in charge of Arsenal after 18 months with the team following his appointment last summer as the man to replace the big shoes of legendary manager Arsene Wenger.

It is safe to say that Unai Emery has not lived up to expectations despite leading the Gunners to the Europa League final last season.

Arsenal were thrashed 4-1 by Chelsea in that final.

Norwich City vs Arsenal XI (4-2-3-1): Bernd Leno; Hector Bellerin, Sokratis Papasthathopoulos, Rob Holding, Kieran Tierney; Lucas Torreira, Matteo Guendouzi; Nicholas Pepe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Mesut Ozil; Alexandre Lacazette.
