Mikel Arteta will speak to the media this morning before of Arsenal's crucial Premier League match against Newcastle United on Saturday afternoon at the Emirates Stadium.
Welcome to live coverage of Arsenal's press conference before of their Premier League match against Newcastle United on Saturday.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will speak to the media this morning about what is turning up to be a crucial game for his side after their 4-0 loss to Liverpool last weekend.
While Arsenal's 10-game unbeaten run in all competitions came to an end at Anfield, they remain in fifth place in the Premier League rankings, exposing a number of difficulties for the Spaniard to address.
Arteta must find a way to keep his side in the battle for European football qualifying, as they continue to struggle to create huge chances and score goals from open play.
In addition, following Nuno Tavares' error against Liverpool, Arteta must decide whether to keep the Portugal U21 international at left-back or return Kieran Tierney.
There may also be news on Granit Xhaka and Sead Kolasinac's injuries, as well as Joe Willock, who is set to face his previous team for the first time since joining Newcastle in the summer transfer window.
