Behind the scenes at the photocall

The Arsenal squad were asked to strike a pose on Wednesday as they took part in the official photocall ahead of the new season.

Before the start of each campaign, the players of each club pose for pictures and video images to be broadcast throughout the season.

• First-team squad continue pre-season preparations
• Pictures: Alexis returns to pre-season training at Colney

It was our turn on Thursday before Members' Day, and the boys certainly looked like they had a bit of fun along the way, as our club photographers' pictures show.
