Arsene Wenger has revealed the following team news ahead of Saturday's game against West Ham United:
on Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain…
Chamberlain has a hamstring strain, the only thing we don't know is how bad it is because usually the scans are only done 48 hours after the accident. That will be done today [Wednesday].
on Jack Wilshere…
Jack is progressing well, he is not back in training yet.
on Mathieu Flamini…
Mathieu is training, he could be available for the squad on Saturday.
on Gabriel…
Gabriel may be [available] next week, he should come back into training on Sunday or Monday.
on whether the Monaco game will affect his team selection…
No. We were at a high level of fatigue because we played against Monaco, Everton, QPR, Manchester United, all very physical games. I will have to test medically, physically, how the players are on Friday, and I will make my decision then. The big priority is of course West Ham.
