You may have seen #ArsenalLive trending this morning, in fact when I looked it was trending 3^rd worldwide!

The event is one that is being run from the @Arsenal twitter account as some of the clubs players take part in a live ‘Twitter Takeover’.  They have been encouraging fans to tweet their questions to the players using the hashtag and then the players answer the best ones.

As the club put it ahead of the event…

Arsenal’s players will be taking part in a live Twitter Takeover with the fans on Wednesday.

We’ll be at the training ground to catch up with some of the first-team squad and we want you to put YOUR questions to them via the @arsenal Twitter page.

Just use the hashtag #ArsenalLive to make sure we can see your question.

We’re keeping the identity of the players under wraps for now but join us from 10.30am (UK time) to find out who is first in the hotseat.

We’ll give you time to get your questions in for each player – and they will answer as many as they can. So make sure you’re on Twitter at 10.30am to join in the chat.

They used through the one hour period; Tomas Rosicky, Aaron Ramsey, Lukasz Fabianski, Mikel Arteta, Johan Djourou and Thomas Vermaelen.

Its not a new idea but when you have 1.3m fans on Twitter and have been running the story on the website it is going to gain some traction.  I doubt the people at the club would have thought it would gain this much and am sure will be delighted.  Looking forward to seeing what the results were and what the reactions of those involved is going to be.
