Mikel Arteta will have the luxury of naming a larger matchday squad as Arsenal return to Europa League action tonight (Thursday) against FK Bodo/Glimt.
The Gunners manager has been operating with a slightly smaller squad since the beginning of September as both Hector Bellerin and Ainsley Maitland-Niles departed on transfer deadline day, whilst the likes of Nicolas Pepe, Lucas Torreira and Bernd Leno all left during the final month of the window.
As a result, with the club's official website stating that Arsenal have 24 senior players listed, it means that if everyone is available for selection, Arteta will always have to make a decision on which four first-team stars to leave out of his 20-man matchday squad for a Premier League fixture.
