Arsenal defender Ben White is happy Aleksandar Mitrovic won’t be with Fulham on Saturday.
Mitrovic was sold by Fulham last week to Al-Hilal.
Ahead of Sunday’s derby, White told arsenal.com: “I played against him in the Championship as well and that was always hard, so he’s a very good striker and one that I’m quite pleased to see go!
“It’s going to be a tough game. They’re going to be coming to Arsenal wanting to get some points, so it’s our job to do what we need to do.
“We knew it was going to be a tough game [against Palace]. They’re a very good side with a very good manager who knows what he’s doing. Especially with 10 men, it’s a hard place to go.
“I don’t think you’ve seen the best of what we can do. We’re looking to be better than last year.”
