He played in Dennis Bergkamp's testimonial against Ajax Amsterdam in July 2006, and in the club's pre-season tour of Austria and the Netherlands. He made his first-team debut as a substitute for Denílson in Arsenal's League Cup third-round match against West Bromwich Albion on 24 October 2006.[2] He also played in Arsenal's fourth-round match against Everton on 8 November 2006,[3] again coming on for Denílson, and was on the bench for their quarter-final against Liverpool, but did not play in that match.

2006–07 season and 2007–08 season

On 8 February 2007, he signed his first professional contract with Arsenal,[4] and in the summer of 2007 took part in Arsenal's annual first-team pre-season training camp in Austria.[5] However, he was out of the side for the first few months of the 2007–08 season after suffering an injury in Arsenal Reserves' opening Premier Reserve League match of the season, against Fulham in late August, but made his first start for Arsenal in the League Cup quarter-final against Blackburn Rovers on 18 December 2007,[6][7] and also made his second appearance in the competition as a last-minute substitute in the first leg of the semi-finals against Tottenham Hotspur.[8][9]

Randall signed for Burnley on loan, on 31 January 2008, the last day of the transfer window and made 10 league appearances for the Championship club.[10] He returned to Arsenal following the end of the Championship season on 4 May and went on to make his Premier League debut against Sunderland on 11 May in Arsenal's final match of the season. He came on as an 81st-minute substitute and having a goal disallowed in the final moments of the match.[11]
