Arsenal fly to Portugal this afternoon (Wednesday) ahead of their Europa League clash with Sporting CP in Lisbon. Mikel Arteta will hope to get the job done in the first leg to allow for a relatively straightforward second leg to navigate and the team trained in good spirits this morning.
After looking like Gabriel Jesus was the only injury issue facing the Gunners, suddenly they lost both Eddie Nketiah and Leandro Trossard. football.london was in attendance to see the Europa League preparations.
There was mixed news regarding the team from what was seen, although there was certainly more positives than negatives. The biggest challenge would be lasting more than an hour in the arctic-like conditions because I for one was struggling.
