Tonight Jenkinson, who spent time on loan at Birmingham last season, gets a chance to impress boss Unai Emery.
But many Gunners fans on social media were shocked that the usual left-back was given a rare start after recovering from a two-month ankle injury.
James Clements shared a Gif of an open-mouthed Joey from hit TV show Friends — clearly emphasising his shock.
Mustafa Maraqa just seemed mad that he was selected, writing: "What tf is Jenkinson doing on the starting line-up?"
Ndumiso Khwela wrote that he is "still living the dream".
And Chinonso Charles was seemingly pleased with the selection, writing: "Great line-up! Happy to see Jenkinson again".
Upkar Kesar posted that Jenkinson was "immortal".
But Dwayne Opare is clearly not a fan, as he wrote: "I hope all this game time Jenkinson is getting is to make it easier to get him outta of the club come January."
