Arsene Wenger is sweating over the fitness of defender Saed Kolasinaic who is a major doubt to face Manchester City on Sunday.
The full-back is struggling to shrug off a hip problem and looks set to join fellow crocked Gunners David Ospina, Shkodran Mustafi, Calum Chambers, Santi Cazorla and Danny Welbeck on the sidelines
Manchester city welcome Arsenal to the Eithad on Sunday with just two major first-team absentees.
Arsene Wenger is set to recall a string of star names after making eleven changes to the side that took on Red Star Belgrade mid-week.
Vincent Kompany and Benjamin Mendy remain injured, but Pep Guardiola otherwise has a fully fit squad to pick from.
