Ghana international Andre Ayew’s smile was bright when he returned to training at the Rush Green complex ahead of their away game against Arsenal in mid-week.
The Ghanaian was toothless in their 2-1 defeat at the hands Hull City with their manager’s future up in the air.
It does not get easy with a trip to the emirates on the cards against a desperate Arsenal side who are without a win in their last four games.
Manager Slaven Bilic has been given the dreaded vote of confidence but his situation will be almost unattainable if they fail to pick a point at the Emirates.
Ayew’s smile should be the light in a camp that is without any positive.
