It’s World Egg Day, don’t you know, and Arsenal were not going to let such an occasion pass them by without a mention.
So, of course, they re-imagined the XI using egg-related puns.
It has to be seen to be believed.

“Here it is”, they wrote, as though this was something we had all been expecting.
For some people, it explained a lot about the team.
This is why Alexis and Ozil want to leave

You can imagine how much time someone spent coming up with it – you don’t turn Marc Overmars into Marc Over-easy-mars without some serious brainstorming.
Can only imagine the cheer around the social media meeting room when one of you came up with "Lac-omelette".

Thierry Henry became Thierry Hen-ry, Eduardo was Egg-uardo, and perhaps worst of all: Oguzhan Ozyakup became Oguzhan Egg-ya-cup.
Eggs-ya-cup? What does that even mean?
Social media managers, maybe leave World Egg Day alone next time.
Right so it's #WorldEggDay what are social media managers meant to do with this? pic.twitter.com/qg0OmzoQEe
