ARTETA: “MERINO AND TIMBER HAVE NO CHANCE!” 🚑 West Ham v Arsenal

Pre-match press conference with Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta ahead of West Ham United v Arsenal at London Stadium in the Premier League.

Arteta confirms Arsenal have no fresh injury concerns after Tuesday, but Mikel Merino and Jurrien Timber have no chance of being available for the weekend.

He discusses Arsenal reaching the Champions League final, the need to refocus immediately on West Ham, the Emirates atmosphere, outside criticism of Arsenal’s celebrations, and the importance of staying present in the final weeks of the season.

Arteta also praises Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, David Raya, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Viktor Gyokeres, while reflecting on squad depth, selection decisions, Ben White’s connection with Saka, and Timber’s injury taking longer than expected.
