Nottingham Forest will face Arsenal when the Premier League returns after the international break
Mikel Arteta called Arsenal’s stuttering bid to win the Premier League title a “nightmare” after his side were left nine points adrift of Liverpool following a 1-1 draw at Chelsea.
Trossard’s late miss saw Arteta collapse on to the pitch, while the Spaniard was also left pondering a fresh double injury blow after both Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka were unable to complete the match. Arteta revealed the England duo are a doubt for the forthcoming international break. “What I’m praying for is that after the international break we have the team fully physically equipped, that they are available and that they are fit, because, it’s been a nightmare for eight weeks.
“The moment you give space and time, you’re going to get punished, so that’s not bad luck. Then the team showed it’s teeth. We created three big chances. Unfortunately we weren’t able to put the ball in the net, but we deserved to win it.Rice, who was a doubt heading into the fixture with a broken toe, was replaced after 71 minutes, while Saka was also withdrawn in the second period following a robust tackle by Marc Cucurella.
