Arsenal’s Eddie Nketiah was brought on to help the Gunners protect a slim lead against Leicester City on Tuesday, but his introduction didn’t go to plan.The young striker was shown a straight red card for a high challenge on Leicester’s James Justin just four minutes after coming on.The Foxes went on to equalise to snatch a point and Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta was left to fume after Nketiah’s dismissal.“We should have been three or four-nil up,” the Spaniard told Sky Sports at full-time. “With the red card you have to know he is a young kid.”Nketiah lasted precisely four minutes and four seconds before departing.p1ecnam5njvh512lhgiojjd18ph9.jpgBut his sending off wasn’t even close to being the fastest by a substitute in the Premier League.The Sun have listed the 10 fastest in the English top flight since 2006/07, and there have been seven speedier dismissals than Nketiah’s.Steven Gerrard lasted just 38 seconds when he was brought on for Liverpool against Manchester United in 2015. A stamp on Ander Herrera saw Gerrard take an early bath after arriving at half-time.p1ecnao7431thp1oq5lrod1pq3b.jpgDave Kitson also lost his head shortly after coming on for Reading against Man United in 2007. A dangerous tackle on Patrice Evra resulted in Kitson being shown his marching orders 47 seconds after his arrival.Here are the top 10 fastest sending offs for a sub since 2006/07.1.

Just imagine it.

The manager turns to you in order to save the day and you repay his faith by getting sent off in a matter of minutes.

Or in Gerrard’s case, 38 seconds.

At least there’s probably no need to take a shower.
