The 2025/26 season has been testing for Myles Lewis-Skelly, but one moment of the campaign will stick with him forever.

Despite not playing very much at all, Lewis-Skelly is calm about his game time at Arsenal this season.

After an incredible breakthrough season last year, the Englishman is eyeing a spot back in the starting XI, but right now, patience is key.

Though Lewis-Skelly’s involvement on the pitch has reduced, he’s still taking in the privilege of being an Arsenal player, watching some truly incredible moments unfold.

If Myles Lewis-Skelly could only play in one position for the rest of his career, would you have him at left-back or in midfield?

What's his best position?

Myles Lewis-Skelly was moved by Eberechi Eze’s unveiling at the Emirates 

Being a boyhood Arsenal fan, there are few players who truly understand what representing the club means, with Lewis-Skelly being moved by several moments this season.

In an interview posted on Arsenal’s official X account, the teenager admitted that he got emotional over Eberechi Eze’s unveiling at the Emirates

“Ebs’ signing, how was that reception to you?” the host asked.

Despite Eze being a part of the interview, it was Lewis-Skelly who replied first, saying, “Even for me, bro, it was emotional watching it.”

Lewis-Skelly is Arsenal through and through and showed it with his response to the question, seeing a fellow boyhood Gooner fulfil a life-long dream.

Eze was over the moon when he signed for Arsenal, particularly as he so nearly signed for Tottenham.

It wasn’t only the playmaker who was gleaming, but Lewis-Skelly too, who loved watching his teammate greet the Emirates for the first time.

Eze says he’s already lived a dream at Arsenal 

Given the struggles that Eze is currently experiencing, it’s easy to forget that the 27-year-old is very much living the dream.

In the same interview, Eze was asked what he believes is the most iconic part of his Arsenal career so far, and his response was unsurprising.

“The North London derby, no,” Eze said.

“Hat-trick, just celebrating the whole game. That’s every Arsenal fan’s dream.”

Eze’s hat-trick against Spurs was written in the stars after snubbing the Lilywhites in the summer.

It was a day to remember for the summer signing, who will be eyeing further days like that at Arsenal.
