Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has been holding his pre-match press conference this morning ahead of Saturday’s clash with Manchester City and has given us a team news and injury update.

Arsene revealed that Aaron Ramsey’s ankle injury will be assessed today and he has a ‘little chance’ to be available. Rambo limped off during the final stages of Wales’ 2-1 win over Andorra on Tuesday night but fingers crossed he’s passed fit as he’d be a major loss.

The boss also confirmed that left-back Kieran Gibbs is available again having fully recovered from a hamstring strain that’s kept him out since the opening weekend of the season.

Mesut Ozil is also fit despite pulling out of the Germany squad after picking up an ankle knock against Leicester last time out.

There is further good on the injury front as Mikel Arteta is back in the squad after missing the last three games with an ankle injury, so the skipper is expected to come straight back in for Mathieu Flamini.
