There is barely any let-up for Premier League teams this season, with games coming every three days.
It is a challenge for every manager to juggle their squad - so who is fit to face Wolves on Tuesday night, and who is expected to miss out?
This is what Mikel Arteta told the media:
on whether Martin Odegaard is ready to start...
Let's see today how everybody is. We have some other issues in the last few days as well, so today we'll have a better picture of who is available to play tomorrow. Then we'll put the players who are completely fit to start the game.
on Bukayo Saka and Kieran Tierney...
We don't know yet [if they'll return]. Today we've got a training session and they haven't been able to train with us yet, so I think it will be really difficult for them. But I don't know, we're going to try to last-minute see how they are feeling.
on Alex Lacazette...
We have to follow the protocols, that we have to test him and make an x-ray. He was completely fine after the game, he was fine yesterday and he has slept well. I'm expecting him to be available.
on Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang...
There's still some things to clear up. Maybe yes, maybe no. We don't know. We're still doing some paperwork at the moment.
