Photo: ‘Special’ Arsenal talent who’s ‘so exciting’ returns to training, he could start against Watford
Arsenal trained at the Emirates Stadium today instead of London Colney and Emile Smith Rowe has returned after missing the last game.
The Gunners ended February in style. They won each of their three Premier League games last month and Mikel Arteta’s side are in a fantastic position ahead of the business end of the season.
Arsenal sit just two points behind fourth-placed Manchester United but have three games in hand over the Red Devils. If Arteta can keep his entire squad fit until the end of the campaign, they will be the favourites to finish in one of the Champions League places and the Spaniard has just received a big boost.
Smith Rowe, who is one of Arsenal’s most important players, is back.
Emile Smith Rowe returns to training ahead of Watford v Arsenal
Arsenal are hard at work ahead of their game against Watford in the Premier League on Sunday. The Gunners have to keep their momentum and a win this weekend will increase their top-four hopes even more.
Smith Rowe, , missed the Gunners’ impressive win over Wolves last week. The young Englishman was ill and although Arsenal picked up the victory, there were moments where they really missed his creativity.
If training pictures are anything to go by, Smith Rowe is back fit again and he is in contention to play a part when the Gunners head to Vicarage Road on Sunday afternoon.
Here’s the Englishman busy at work at the Emirates.
ESR could start over Martinelli
Martin Odegaard, Alexandre Lacazette and Bukayo Saka are undisputed starters for Arsenal at the moment and that is unlikely to change this weekend.
The only debate for Arteta is on the left flank where both Smith Rowe and Gabriel Martinelli have performed exceedingly well in recent weeks. The Gunners boss can only go with one of them and we believe the Englishman is the better option.
Roy Hodgson’s sides typically sit back and hit on the counter-attack which makes them really hard to break down. Martinelli thrives when there is space to run in behind while Smith Rowe is the guy Arsenal turn to unlock defences.
That gives us enough reason to believe that the Croydon-born Englishman will get the nod this weekend and he’ll be looking to continue to his incredible form.
