Premier League Kick-Off with Darren Fletcher on BBC Radio 5 Live had some fun with Oasis-themed football puns on Friday as tickets for the reunion tour went on sale.

Reece messaged the show with 'And so, Salah can wait' instead of 'And so, Sally can wait' from 'Don't Look Back in Anger'.

Chris texted in with 'Ugarte roll De Ligt' instead of 'You gotta roll with it' from the song 'Roll With It'.

Nige got in touch with 'Tonight, I'm a rock 'n' roll Solskjaer' instead of 'Tonight, I'm a rock 'n' roll star' from the song 'Rock 'N' Roll Star'.

Listen to the show here.

Ray_NN: Arsenal are signing a player who is proven in the Premier League. Yes it's a loan signing but having a player of that quality in your squad makes you stronger, gives you options to rotate and manage injuries. If they go on good cup runs this season, this could be a very astute signing.

Arsenal

Raheem Sterling is not available to face Brighton as he was signed after Friday's midday registration deadline.

However, he could make his debut after the international break in the north London derby at Tottenham on 15 September.
