Arsenal are set to welcome Everton to the Emirates in the Premier League tomorrow.

Arsene Wenger manager

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger addressed the media today during his pre-match press conference, and delivered a disappointing injury update on three of his key players, ahead of his side’s clash with Everton at the Emirates tomorrow, as quoted by popular football news website Football.London.

Arsenal are currently in the midst of a really poor run of form, having won just one Premier League game since December 28th, and they sit in sixth spot in the table, a distant eight points adrift of the Champions League places.

If the north London outfit are to have any chance whatsoever of making the top four, they will need to string together an extremely strong set of results, starting with a win over the Toffees tomorrow.

That will be easier said than done, however, especially after Wenger’s comments on the fitness of Jack Wilshere, Danny Welbeck and new signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

The Gunners boss addressed the media today, and suggested that they could all be absent from the game against Sam Allardyce’s side, as quoted by popular football news website Football.London:

“We had Jack who was sick, we will assess him today. I hope he will be capable to be in the squad. We will see how he feels. Aubameyang was sick as well. Welbeck is not completely back from injury.”

The game kicks off at 17:30 tomorrow, and can be seen exclusively live on BT Sport.
