The Gunners have endured a surprising dip in form in recent weeks, winning just one of their last six Game s in all com Pet itions - including consecutive losses to West Ham and Fulham in the Premier League which have seen them drift five points off the pace at the top of the table.

Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino has praised winger Noni Madueke for working hard and forcing his way back into the starting lineup this season. The 21-year-old struggled for minutes during the first half of the season, featuring in just six of the first 17 Premier League Game s of the campaign and starting just once, with Pochettino openly challenging Madueke to raise his performances in training if he wanted to play more minutes. In response to that challenge, Madueke impressed off the bench in the 2-1 defeat to Wolves before scoring as a substitute against Crystal Palace, and he capped off an excellent few weeks with a start and a goal in Chelsea's victory over Luton Town. "We have spoken about players needing to improve and he is a player that has improved a lot," Pochettino said of Madueke.

Antony has blasted critics on social media for " ruining lives ", also stating that former Manchester United players are not helping matters with their "malicious" and "unreasonable" opinions. The 24-year-old arrived at Old Trafford for £85m in the summer of 2022, but has struggled to find any kind of consistent form.

Andre Onana and Luke Shaw are fit and available for Manchester United's trip to Everton on Sunday but doubts remain over Rasmus Hojlund. 27-year-old Onana picked up an injury while away on international duty with Cameroon, raising concerns that he may not be ready for United's visit to Goodison Park.

Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard is on course to return to action for the Gunners later this month after the November international break. Odegaard hasn't started a Game since Arsenal’s Champions League away win over Sevilla last month. He sat out the Premier League thrashing of Sheffield United with what was later reported to be a hip problem, but returned as a late substitute in the Carabao Cup defeat to West Ham. However, the 24-year-old then missed subsequent Game s against Newcastle, Sevilla and Burnley. At least the latter two absences are thought to be as a result of an unspecified training injury . There is no long-term concern, though, with manager Mikel Arteta expectant that Odegaard will be ready to play again before the end of November when Arsenal face Brentford and Lens.

Liverpool attacker Luis Diaz and his family endured a horrible two weeks towards the end of 2023 as his mother and father were kidnapped in his native Colombia. Both parents have been returned safely to civilian life without any major injuries, albeit at different times. This will be of immense relief to Diaz and everyone in his life after some tireless campaigning in public and private to get his father freed. In the meantime, he has still managed to continue playing and scoring for Liverpool, showing incredible mental strength at a time when nobody would have begrudged him stepping away from the action.
