Arsenal trio Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Carl Jenkinson and Kieran Gibbs attempted to land an Emirates A380 airline in a simulator.

Oxlade-Chamberlain took to the controls first, and was able to land smoothly on command from 30-year-old veteran Captain Coles, while Gibbs landed slightly too abruptly when it was his turn.

However, Jenkinson struggled when he took to the cockpit as he bumped down the runaway after losing his focus while monitoring the instruments.

"I was more excited to be honest going in there, but then, when I was actually in the seat, I was yeah quite nervous to be honest," said Jenkinson. "It was a lot more difficult than I anticipated."

The players took on the challenge at the Emirates Aviation College in Dubai.
