Team news: The Ox, Arteta and Wilshere

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

Arsene Wenger has revealed the latest team news ahead of Saturday's FA Cup semi-final against Reading:

on the team news…
We have a big squad available for selection and we just have Arteta (match fitness) and Oxlade-Chamberlain (groin) unavailable. Everybody else should be alright.

on Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain…
He’s at least two weeks away.

on Jack Wilshere…
He has improved physically and I think he is available for selection on Saturday.

on his goalkeepers…
It will be Szczesny [who plays] on Saturday.

on Szczesny not playing in the FA Cup last season…
But he has played in the last round. This season he has played at Man United and he had a very good performance. I believe it’s important that the two goalkeepers get competition and he will get competition in the FA Cup now, as long as Ospina plays in the Premier League.
