Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta has not yet decided whether captain Martin Odegaard will play in the Carabao Cup fourth round away at West Ham (1 Nov. )or not? Even though there are already pictures of the Tuesday practice meal, Gabriel Jesus is still very happy.
Odegaard forced to compete despite hip injury for several weeks. Just got a break from the league game defeating Sheffield United 5-0 on Saturday. With a tough match away at the London Stadium. The 41-year-old coach must evaluate all aspects before making a decision ทางเข้า UFABET
“We rested him last match. It depends on how long you should preserve your body. How you manage your time on the field. To restore the playing rhythm necessary to return to optimal condition. Which the team had the opportunity to rest and use. And finally decided not to compete.”
Arteta said.
“In football it is impossible to compete without any injury. At this level, where every three days are played, there is no way.”
“If you’re thinking of doing that, it’s better to stay home. Because I don’t know which player can maintain the consistency of perfect physical condition. We have to apply it together.”
“Everyone other than Odegaard is the same, they have to push their abilities. We have players who were out for six weeks but came back three. Or four weeks ahead of schedule to play big games and have an incredible impact on the game.”
“When you talk about attitude adjustment it’s a big thing. Not only Martin but also the physio, the doctors and the Mets push you to the point where you’re comfortable in your role as a player. It is something that must be done.”
As for Jesus, who had a hamstring injury from the Champions League game against Sevilla 2-1 last week, it is difficult to have a time frame to return to the field.
“To be honest, I don’t have a time frame for ‘Gabi'” added the Spanish coach.
“I’ve done it once. But it was a mistake. We need to provide good care because we want to take care of it properly.”
“That guy used to push everyone. and want to return as soon as possible We need to use him as well. So everything is great.”
