Unai Emery on whether Ozil, Bellerin, Mustafi will start against West Ham United

Hector Bellerin, Nacho Monreal, Dinos Mavropanos, Shkodran Mustafi, Laurent Koscielny and Mesut Ozil returned to full training yesterday.

Arsenal will on Saturday be welcomed at the London Stadium by West Ham United and Unai Emery will be hoping to get a win there because the gunners usually struggle against the hammers when they are playing them away from home.

The gunners received good news yesterday after Arsenal released a statement which claimed that the North Londoners have welcomed back six of their stars ahead of their Premier League match against West Ham United on the weekend. Hector Bellerin, Nacho Monreal, Dinos Mavropanos, Shkodran Mustafi, Laurent Koscielny and Mesut Ozil have all returned to full training.

Some of these were in Unai Emery’s first eleven before they got injured but have spent a few weeks on the sidelines. Unai Emery had a pre-match press conference on Thursday and he was asked about a number of matters including on if he plans on immediately adding some players back to the starting eleven that will face West Ham United on Saturday, he replied telling Arsenal Player.

“Some players can recover their positions in the squad and in the first XI, and some of them we need their performances now.” said Unai Emery.

“Above all, we are going to have one mix of the players that have been playing and helping us with good performances and adapt against West Ham, imposing our idea on the pitch.”

The Arsenal coach did not mention the names of the players which he will immediately get back into the starting eleven but Dinos Mavropanos might not feature against West Ham United since he has been on the sidelines for over four months. So Bellerin, Ozil and Mustafi could get back into the first eleven since they are highly needed.
