Mikel Arteta gives Antonio Conte a taste of his own medicine with Arsenal injury update

Mikel Arteta has emulated Antonio Conte's coy press conference by delivering a cryptic update of his own on Arsenal's injured players ahead of this weekend's clash with Tottenham.

The Gunners head into this weekend's north London derby at the top of the Premier League table and will be out for revenge against Spurs, who pipped their bitter rivals to a top-four place last term.

But a number of fitness worries have emerged for Arsenal in recent weeks. Oleksandr Zinchenko has been working on his fitness at the club's London Colney base and did not join up with the Ukraine national team after missing the 3-0 win over Brentford prior to the international break, while Thomas Partey and Kieran Tierney both picked up issues during their time away with Ghana and Scotland respectively.
