Team news: Arteta, Welbeck and Wilshere

Abou Diaby

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

on Arteta, Wilshere, Debuchy and Diaby…
They were all involved on Tuesday and it went well. They’ve no problem after that coming out of the game. They are back available in training, a bit short still of top competitive level certainly but that’s normal. They’ve been out for a long time but I was quite surprised by how fit they looked and the quality of their performance - it was good.

on recalling them for Saturday...
Jack or Diaby or Debuchy, will I involve any of them? I don't know, I haven't decided.

on how vital their experience will be…
You want everybody available and back in the final months to compete at the top level. The consistency will play a big part in the success of the team and having everybody available can help.

on Oxlade-Chamberlain and Welbeck…
Oxlade-Chamberlain is still out and not available and Danny Welbeck came back from England with a slight knee injury. It looks like he has a little chance to be available for Saturday still.
