Arsene Wenger has revealed the latest team news ahead of Saturday's Premier League fixture against Watford:
on the latest team news…
All the players who were on international duty have come back in good shape. Wilshere and Rosicky are back in full training. Basically they are all progressing well.
on Santi Cazorla…
Santi has started to run, but is still a few weeks away I think. I hope [he will play again this season] because he has started to run. We have to always be a bit cautious, because you never know how people will respond to training sessions, but at the moment he looks like he has a chance to be completely fit to respond again before the end of the season, and to be competitive.
on Petr Cech…
Cech will join in training today, but I haven’t decided if he will be in the squad or not.
on whether Jack Wilshere will play for the under-21s…
Not yet, no, we have not decided that yet. It is his first week back in full training and we’ll see how he responds to that, but the first signs are quite good. We’ll assess our options next week.
on Aaron Ramsey…
Ramsey will not be available for this weekend, but hopefully next weekend.
on Mathieu Flamini…
Flamini is short for this weekend but could be available next weekend.
on Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain…
Oxlade-Chamberlain is progressing well.
