Arsenal’s friendly match against Al-Nasr in Dubai on Tuesday was the perfect opportunity for some of the fringe players to give Unai Emery one or two things to think about ahead of the business end of the season.
However, it looks like defender Shkodran Mustafi has actually done his chances more harm than good during the match.

Mustafi is prone to a defensive error
The defender looked a bit foolish when he fell on the floor in the build-up to the middle-eastern side taking a surprise lead.
It was a lovely curling effort by Ronnie Fernandez but Mustafi was sold by a pretty obvious dummy his opponent pulled before unleashing the shot.
This is not the first time Mustafi has made mistakes this season, giving away a silly penalty against Crystal Palace in October – something that angered these Arsenal supporters.
And Arsenal fans appear to have had enough of the Germany international as his error costs his team once again.

Mustafi hasn’t covered himself in glory against Al-Nasr Dubai
Carl Jenkinson levelled the game just before the break before Alexandre Lacazette put Arsenal in front on 51 minutes before Tyreece John-Jules put the result beyond doubt, although a late penalty meant it ended 3-2.
But this is almost insignificant in the eyes of these Gooners, who were so outraged with Mustafi’s performance they’ve taken to Twitter to vent their concerns.
They claim that 26-year-old, who was substituted at half-time for Laurent Koscielny, looked out of his depth against much weaker opposition than Arsenal are used to.
Below you can see some of the best Mustafi tweets from these Arsenal fans.
