Mikel Arteta was discussing the injuries affecting Arsenal’s lineup and Gabriel Magalhaes’s condition following his substitution due to a prior injury.
Mikel Arteta said, “It was related to the previous injury he had in Lisbon. Obviously, he did great to be part of that but with that result and with the niggle that he’s feeling, we decided to take him off.”
Mikel Arteta addressed Gabriel’s fitness and the status of other players during a pre-match press conference, while keeping details about the lineup for the upcoming match against Manchester United confidential.
Mikel Arteta said, “We’re gonna have a meeting this afternoon. We have done a training session. We monitored and kept some players away from certain activities.”
