What started out as a 10-man group representing Arsenal at the 2022 World Cup is now a quartet for one reason or another following events over the past week.
Thomas Partey and Matt Turner were the first two Gunners players to be eliminated from the tournament whilst a knee injury has resulted in Gabriel Jesus returning home earlier than he would have expected and Ben White left the England camp for personal reasons.
This week has seen Takehiro Tomiyasu take Japan's penalty shootout defeat at the hands of Croatia very badly with the versatile Arsenal defender delivering a brutal assessment of his own performance as well as suggesting he needs time to "forget about football".
