Arsene Wenger has revealed the latest team news ahead of Saturday's game against Burnley:

on the latest team news...
With the long-term injuries nobody is back. We have a slight problem with Wilshere. Will he be available [on Saturday] or not? I will see today. Gibbs as well has a test, but I am quite positive about him. About Wilshere I don't think he will be available.

on Wilshere…
Very, very short-term. He got a kick on his knee. I don't know if Tuesday will be too early or not, at the moment he doesn't practice, but certainly Swansea, yes.

on Olivier Giroud…
[He is doing] very well. He's three weeks ahead of schedule and I think he will join in normal training after the international break.

on that being a big boost…
Yes of course. He's miles ahead of schedule.
