Sportist Svoge Overview

Viktor Gyokeres has issued a firm reminder of his quality to Mikel Arteta by etching his name into the UEFA Nations League history books during the international break. The Arsenal forward has struggled for consistent starts at the Emirates, but his exploits for Sweden suggest he is ready to take a leading role in north London.

Thomas Tuchel has offered his support to Raheem Sterling during what has become the most challenging chapter of the forward's professional life. The England manager, who previously worked with the winger at Chelsea, expressed his sadness at seeing a once-dominant Premier League force struggle both on and off the pitch.

Arsenal have received a significant boost in their quest to defend the Premier League title as William Saliba steps up his rehabilitation from a long-term back injury. The French international has reportedly returned to the grass for the first time since the summer, sparking hope that his absence from Mikel Arteta’s starting XI is finally nearing its end.

Arsenal's medical team are facing another busy period as summer signing Christos Tzolis became the latest star to be struck by the international break curse. The winger was forced off during the early stages of Greece's Nations League encounter with the Netherlands, leaving Mikel Arteta sweating on his fitness ahead of the Premier League's return.
