We'll be facing Westham tomorrow in our seventh game of the Barclays Premier League 2012/13 season and Arsene Wenger had given an update on the present condition of the team.
on Per Mertesacker...
He is better. He came in on Thursday and
had a little session. He'll have a test. It is
not certain that he will play.
on the sickness that has affected the team...
It is flu that has travelled from body to body. We have had Coquelin, Vermaelen, Walcott out. But nobody else has it at the moment.
on other team news...
There is nothing else. Wojciech and Fabianski are not back so Martinez will be back in the squad as the second goalkeeper.
on Bacary Sagna...
Maybe he will play on Monday night [for the
under-21s]. He needs some games because he has not played for five months. He has been in training for a week now so he should be capable of playing
for an hour.
