Arsenal fans thought tonight was going to be a formality, but they reckoned without a horrendous display from centre-back Calum Chambers in the first half. With a 3-0 lead against the minnows Ostersunds, Wenger named a second-string team but they went two goals down in the first 25 minutes – the first an own goal from Chambers. That cut the aggregate score to 3-2 and threatened a huge shock in a cup that Arsenal probably need to win to qualify for the Champions League.

Arsenal fought back into the game by half-time but Jack Wilshere missed a big chance just before half-time and meant the fans had a nervy 15 minutes to contemplate a second-half that no-one would have predicted. Most of the half-time talk will be about the display of Chambers at the back... Here are the best reactions to Arsenal fans after a terrible first half from the 23-year-old at the Emirates:
