Arsenal are without two key first-team stars for the trip to Aston Villa as Aaron Ramsdale and Gabriel Martinelli both miss the contest with injury.
Ramsdale has been an ever-present for the Gunners since he signed at the tail-end of the summer transfer window but is not fit enough to be between the sticks at Villa Park. Reports emerged late Friday night that the 23-year-old had picked up a knock during training and could be a doubt.
However, those fears appeared to have been eased when footage of Ramsdale getting on the team bus alongside his teammates started to circulate. Unfortunately for Arsenal fans and manager Mikel Arteta, the England international is clearly only there for moral support. The club have already confirmed it is an injury to Ramsdale's hip that keeps him out of of the Saturday lunch-time kick-off.
