Morning all, happy Friday to you. Mikel Arteta will meet the press this morning ahead of our trip to Sunderland on Saturday, having seen his team play very well in Napoli after making changes in key positions. I was hoping we’d see rotation, and I was hoping that the players who came in did well, because – and I realise this might just be me – I feel like he almost needs to be convinced by the idea that using his big squad to the fullest extent is a good one.
