Mikel Arteta said Arsenal “lost two players” to freak injuries during a post-match cool-down, something he said had “never happened in seven years” that he had spent at the club.
The Gunners returned to Premier League action after the extended international break with a 2-1 win over Leeds on Saturday, with Riccardo Calafiori and Bruno Guimaraes securing all three points despite them falling behind early.
