Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta explains lack of minutes for Emile Smith Rowe, Eddie Nketiah and Reiss Nelson
Mikel Arteta has offered an explanation as to why Arsenal trio Emile Smith Rowe, Eddie Nketiah and Reiss Nelson are struggling for regular game time.
All three players were unused substitutes as the Gunners demolished Sheffield United 6-0 on Monday.
Smith Rowe has made just 16 appearances across all competitions this season while Nketiah and Nelson have also seen their opportunities somewhat limited.
Speaking ahead of Arsenal’s home clash against Brentford on Saturday, Arteta was quizzed why the trio did not come off the bench at Bramall Lane.
