PSG manager Luis Enrique when asked how his team will prepare to take on #Arsenal: โWe will prepare in the same way as we did against Liverpool. Liverpool are a team that has at least as much potential as Arsenal, if not more.
โAston Villa also had great potential in this area, as do the majority of Ligue 1 teams. We will not prepare our team based on this aspect of the game in particular. But it is obvious that we must be competitive everywhere

๐ฃ๏ธMikel Arteta when asked whether #Arsenal will rest Bukayo Saka in the upcoming Premier League fixtures: โWe cannot think in those terms, when the players are fit and available and want to play, they have to play.
"They are at their best when they are playing and they have consistency in their performances and physically and emotionally they are good. They have the rhythm and that is when they are at their best.
"If they are not available, there is no discussion. If they are not in a good condition to perform we are not going to play them. But if they are we will play them."

Arsenal want to keep Thomas Partey at the club beyond his existing contract and are in talks with the midfielder about a new deal.
The 31-year-oldโs terms expire this summer and that would enable him to leave as a free agent.
He would be open to an improved two-year agreement or a one-year deal plus an option to extend by a further 12 months.
Partey will also consider alternative options in case a deal cannot be struck for him to stay.
