The Arsenal squad are in good spirits ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash against Southampton as they look to bounce back from the two successive defeats which have dented their top-four hopes.
After Mikel Arteta's decision to start Granit Xhaka at left-back against Brighton and Hove Albion last weekend backfired, the Gunners boss could ring the changes for the trip to the South Coast amid a theory that Nuno Tavares is in line for a recall to the starting line-up.
One player expected to keep his place in the Arsenal side against the Saints is goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale. Although, Bernd Leno has issued a timely reminder that he can be called upon in the case of any emergency.
