Team news: Who is fit to face Newcastle?

Mikel Arteta
Mikel Arteta celebrates his goal against West Brom

Arsene Wenger has revealed the latest team news ahead of the final Premier League game of the season, away at Newcastle United on Sunday afternoon.

on Arteta...
For the weekend, we have the uncertainty over Mikel Arteta, who had to come off just before the end of the Wigan game with a calf strain. Honestly, his chances of being available are minimal. I have to be realistic and prepare for another solution.

on the overall injury situation...
Everybody else should be alright. There are no other real uncertainties.

on Wilshere replacing Arteta...

He is an option yes. We will monitor him until Sunday and I will make a decision very late over what I will do.

on Giroud's return...

I am happy to have him back. He missed some games and will be full of enthusiasm.
