Gabriel had friends in the Chapecoense squad and delivered a heartfelt message after Wednesday’s game against Southampton. Now Arsene Wenger must decide whether to play Gabriel at West Ham on Saturday.
“I think [he will be able to play,” said the boss. “I will have a chat with him today [Friday].
“If he is in the right frame of mind, he will play. He sent a very emotional message to the families of people involved in this crash, but he still played on Wednesday night and I think if he has recovered well physically and mentally I will play him.”
More polls coming soon!
