Arsenal's fixture congestion is starting to take a toll on the squad with injuries ramping up, I can't blame Arteta for wanting to push out his best side and not always alternate and that's something a manager has to figure out but if we pick up anymore it's going to impact the performance of the squad.
Injuries are not always a bad thing even to key players because it opens up a chance for other fringe players to take the opportunity to cement some game time and make sure the injured player doesn't walk back into the squad.
At the moment Arsenal have 6 injuries in the likes of:

- Turner
- Zinchenko
- Elneny
- Smith Rowe
- Saka
- Marquinhos
So that's two central midfielders, one goalkeeper, 2 wingers, and a fullback, so there is enough cover in all those positions. I think Marq would be the most disappointed because he would have been Saka's direct replacement but it looks like Nelson will be taking on that spot.
The one concern is none of these players have a return date marked so we don't know how long they are going to be out for, but lets see how things go against Zurich and in the league this weekend.
