Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta can breathe a sigh of relief that the likes of Bukayo Saka, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Granit Xhaka all came away from international duty unscathed.
The Gunners are gearing up for one last push as the season approaches its final furlong. As things stand, Arsenal sit eight points clear at the top of the Premier League table with 10 games to play. However, they have played one game more than nearest challengers and reigning champions Manchester City.
With plenty of tricky tests still to come, some sections of the Arsenal fanbase are still reluctant to consider their side as favourites for the title this term. As for Arteta, his focus will be on the very next game, which comes in the form of a home clash with Leeds on Saturday.
