Mikel Arteta jokingly thanks England manager Thomas Tuchel for giving him the extra pressure to play defender Myles Lewis-Skelly, to ensure the Arsenal youngster remains in contention to secure place at next summer's World Cup.
-TIMESTAMPS-
00:00 - Intro.
00:10 - We looked at everything. What we can tweak and prove. There's a lot of randomness with injuries.
01:00 - It was a specific injury. Two groin and one hamstring.
01:40 - Changing habits: Gabriel gets injured and people say he comes from Brazil. But he has to track back against Adama Traore. If it was Smith Rowe he wouldn't have injured it.
02:40 - Push players harder to replicate?: You have to replicate everything. Impossible.
03:24 - Saka 133 games away from Arsenal premier league record: it's a lot but the numbers Bukayo has at his age is astronomical.
03:48 - 800 games the norm?: I think so. They will raise those figures for sure.
04:16 - Concerned Saka should've been left out?: No. He played 45 against City, 60/70 fo Port Vale. He's played 4 games.
04:44 - MLS warning: That's pressure for me. Thanks Thomas. Hopefully he can enjoy the World Cup.
05:00 - I want the best for my players. Having the chance to play at a World Cup, I don't want to take out.
