Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta gives an update on the conditions of Noni Madueke, Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard, whilst drawing some doubts over the fitness of star defender Gabriel ahead of Eberechi Eze's first match against his former club Crystal Palace
TIMESTAMPS
0:00 INTRO
0:25 injuries - all players progressing well and super willing but none in contention for next week or so
0:50 only 3 goals conceded so far is historic? hopefully the resorts will bring trophies as it is only the start of the season
1:25 Palace a big game for Wze? big game for us as we dropped points v them last season so extra reasons to be a special game for Ebz
2:05 if we want to win then need to do better against Palace than we did last season
2:35 places accept squad selection challenges? emotional and personal but have to make decisions and at least we can now we have the numbers
3:30 Palace and Mateta threat? it's what they do as a team and stopping the source is the best way as he is prolific player
4:20 Gyokeres just needed a hug after Atletico Madrid game
4:46 set pieces stats? i don't see game as open play v set pieces- i see it in a different way
5:13 how have perfected art pieces? hard work and understanding how the game is evolving
5:50 when realise that? ten years ago! i said it and had a vision and try to be surrounded by best people to deliver that
6:20 replicate Wenger defence? normally win league with best defence - apart from last three seasons!!
6:55 we are still far from perfect as margins to win games v small at this level
7:40 light show and fan atmosphere? it is a key factor to win games - good test for fans on Sunday at 2pm
8:35 what liek to play against a former club like Eze will? lots of emotions and feeling in tummy and even more will to win after deciding to leave
9:10 ten years ago set pieces? i was at City with best manager in world and could see where there could be improvements - i want to be the best in every area of football
10:15 Rice compared to Beckham in set pieces? his role has evolved and he is becoming a total player
11:03 Zubimendi qualities? composure and way he works out games is remarkable and a lot more to come from him
12:15 football trend more to your way of thinking?
12:59 Patience to develop ideas over ten years? many factors need to be aligned
14:10 Chelsea record of 15 goals conceded breakable? IF is a big word as football so unpredictable
14:50 current run is super positive and imagine how difficult it is to do this
