Jack Wilshere and Henrikh Mkhitaryan are among the Gunners regulars who will get a start against the Swedish side. The Gunners won the first leg 3-0 in Sweden last week, and will be heavy favourites to advance to the round of 16. Several of Arsenal’s biggest stars have been rested with one eye on Sunday’s Carabao Cup final against Manchester City, including Mesut Ozil, who has battled illness this week....
The Spaniard has apparently informed Mikel Arteta, the Arsenal Head Coach, of his wish and has also passed the message to his parent club Real Madrid. The Spanish giants are contemplating ending the player’s loan deal early and are trying to find him a new destination for the second half of the season. Ceballos wants more game time to stay in contention for a place in the Spain Euro 2020 squad The Spaniard joined Arsenal from Los Blancos last summer on a one-year loan deal and instantly made a mark in the Gunners team....
Aiden English and Simon Gotch held the NXT Tag Team Championship for 81 days in 2015. The following year, they debuted on WWE’s main roster after WrestleMania 32 and quickly became involved in a storyline with The New Day. Anderson worked as a WWE producer from 2001 to 2019. Speaking on his ARN podcast, Anderson explained why WWE fans struggled to understand The Vaudevillains’ old-timey strongman characters.

Arnold Schwarzenegger, who served as the governor of California from 2003 to 2011 and was the last Republican to hold the office, told Politico in a piece published on Wednesday that the GOP is “dying at the box office.” “This is the crazy thing here, when they say it’s a ‘power grab’ of the Republicans,” Schwarzenegger said. “Let me tell you, the [California] Republicans couldn’t even get anyone elected. It’s ludicrous—the Republican Party doesn’t exist....
The discovery was made by researchers with Secrets Of The Ice, the name given to the glacier archaeology program of the Norwegian county of Innlandet. The arrow was discovered nestled between rocks. The research team believes it was encased in ice and was then transported downslope when the ice melted. In an August 18 Facebook post outlining the find, Secrets Of The Ice called the arrow’s preservation “pretty awesome” but not perfect, with sinew and tar—which would have glued parts of the arrow together—showing signs of wear....
However, the former Tottenham man’s comments were not entirely uncalled for, with Arsenal out of the Champions League and FA Cup and their Premier League hopes not in their hands. It remained to be seen if Arsenal, who won a tricky fixture away at Everton prior to the international break, could exact revenge over Quique Sanchez Flores’ men, who had only picked up 8 points since January - a run of form only better than basement boys Aston Villa....
Goals: Alexander Lacazette 4’, Olivier Giroud 68’ 87’, Alexis Sanchez 69’, Mesut Ozil 72' Ruthless. That’s the perfect word to describe Arsenal’s second-half performance against Huddersfield Town, at the Emirates. After going 1-0 up in the fourth minute through Alexander Lacazette’s opener, the Gunners allowed Huddersfield to maintain the pressure on them with some sloppy defending. But a period of four minutes after the hour mark saw Arsenal score as many as three goals, with the Terriers having no clue as to what hit them....
The 32-year-old former German international underwent surgery after picking up the injury in a pre-season friendly in July. “He’s back in training, not with the squad, but he’s two weeks away now,” Wenger told a news conference on Thursday. “He has an option that we have taken. There was no negotiation, just an option that we have taken.” Arsenal, which climbed above Manchester City into fourth place in the Premier League table after beating Swansea City 4-0 last weekend, host 10th-placed Burnley on Sunday, with Wenger’s team boosted by the return of a trio of absentees....
The 25-year-old is thought to have torn a ligament during the meeting in Houston and is reportedly facing up to six months out of action. “We will see what the doctors say, but it is a pretty big tear and I will have to undergo an operation,” he said to reporters. Campbell later added on his official website: “It’s sad and difficult to have to leave the national team, it’s tough when injuries like this stop you from competing and defending your country....
The 17-year-old had initially agreed to join the Gunners upon the expiration of his contract at the Parc des Princes, with new Gunners head coach Unai Emery playing a significant part in persuading Adli to join the club.

In case you didn’t know… The North London club chose not to renew Ramsey’s contract, forcing the midfielder to seek a move away from the club where he has played for 11 years.

Kolo Toure on his reaction after the famous tackle on Arsene Wenger In an exclusive interview with the Telegraph former Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool centre back Kolo Toure opened up on his famous tackle on the legendary manager.

The Gunners have opted to head in a new managerial direction after 22 years under the guidance of Arsene Wenger, but a frugal approach to recruitment appears to remain. There will be no matching the big-spending of rivals such as Manchester City, Chelsea and Manchester United, with value being sought in a market which has seen price tags soar in the wake of Neymar’s record-breaking €222m (£194m/$259m) move to Paris Saint-Germain....
Playmaker Henrikh Mkhitaryan is also a doubt for the trip to Spain. The Armenia international returned from the sidelines against his former side, scored the leveller but was forced off in the second half after picking a knock to his recuperating knee. “Mkhitaryan I took off because he had a little knock on his knee again, the same thing, just looking at him in the dressing room,” Wenger said....

Kolasinac referenced the incident as he shared a photo of the pair laughing in a post to social media. “Think we’re fine,” the Bosnia and Herzegovina international wrote in the caption, which included an emoji of a clenched fist and smiling face....
Lyon pull out of Giroud race The Gunners have been heavily linked with the France international as they look to improve on a fifth-placed finish in the Premier League last season. It seemed as if he was destined for Atletico Madrid, however, only for the Liga outfit’s appeal against a transfer ban to be rejected. Aulas has previously said he would not sell Lacazette unless a replacement was found, but now he is suggesting that there is no chance his prized asset will depart ahead of the 2017-18 season....
The Gunners star, who makes his 150th appearance for the club and 100th Premier League start, was last selected for a league match in the 4-0 defeat to Liverpool at Anfield last month havingfound himself on the bench for the subsequent two league games. Arsenal -1 at 4/5 with dabblebet Mesut Ozil has been in full training this week following a minor knee injury with Arsene Wenger naming the German international as a sub alongside Jack Wilshere and Theo Walcott....
LONDON (Reuters) - Arsenal’s title hopes were virtually extinguished by a 3-3 draw at West Ham United and Aston Villa’s top-flight status is merely mathematical after an eighth successive defeat all but sealed their fate on Saturday. Needing a barnstorming finish to the Premier League season and a Leicester City wobble to have any chance of finishing top for the first time since 2004, Arsenal seemed on course for a third consecutive win when they led 2-0....
Arkansas was a penalty away from a three-touchdown lead on a top six team. And the Hogs still haven’t won an SEC game since 2012. This, of course, can only leave us with one takeaway: the SEC might just cannibalize itself out of the College Football Playoff. MORE: SEC East disarray | Week 5 photos | Michigan throwing in towel? It sounds ridiculous, but do you really see anyone in the SEC West getting through this division of death without a loss?...
