Following Arsenal’s 3-2 win over Manchester United at the weekend, Pep Guardiola’s side is five points off the top spot in the Premier League. City, who have won four titles in five years, have yet to face their greatest domestic threat in any competition this season.
Since Guardiola took over, the club has dominated Arsenal, winning 13 of their 16 meetings.
But Mikel Arteta can take solace in the fact that one of Arsenal’s only two wins against his former coach came under his watch, and it came on the way to the club’s FA Cup victory in 2020.
Mikel Arteta, the manager of Arsenal, has admitted that he may bring in a midfielder before Tuesday’s transfer deadline due to “concerns” about Mohamed Elneny’s injury.
Leandro Trossard has already joined Arsenal from Brighton for a fee of £26 million, and the Gunners have also signed Jakub Kiwior from Spezia for a fee of around £20 million.
But they might have to bring in another player amid fears that a knee injury could rule Elneny out for the season.
However, they may have to bring in another player if Elneny’s knee injury prevents him from playing the rest of the season.
“There are concerns, particularly because Mo is a player who never complains about anything.”
“He had some knee issues that we are currently assessing, and we will have to see how he evolves,” Arteta told reporters on Wednesday.
