In spite of that, the team he manages is generally quite settled, although there are some concerns about the availability of several key players, issues that we will touch on shortly.
The Gunners are entering this match on the back of four consecutive home victories, defeating Bolton in the EFL Cup, overcoming PSG in the Champions League, and also picking up three points against Leicester and Southampton.
However, as always, this serves as a constant reminder to never underestimate any opposition in the Premier League.
In the midst of all this, Gabriel Martinelli suffered a calf injury while on international duty with Brazil during their World Cup qualifying victory over Chile last Thursday, causing him to miss Tuesday’s triumph over Peru in Brasília. Arteta has mentioned that it might be too much of a “risk” to include him in the upcoming game.
All in all, the current situation at Arsenal is one of both hope and uncertainty, with a mix of promising results and injury concerns. With the upcoming matches on the horizon, Arteta will have to navigate these challenges to keep his team on track for success.
And as fans eagerly anticipate the next chapter in Arsenal’s season, the only certainty is that the Premier League always has a way of surprising us, no matter how well a team seems to be performing.
