Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has been speaking to the media before Sunday's FA Cup game against Championship side Portsmouth at Fratton Park (kick-off 14:00 GMT).
Here are the key lines from his news conference:
- Kai Havertz could be available "if everything goes well" in the build-up to the game. Arteta said the forward is "training well" and "coping well" with the "increased load" they are giving him.
- Goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga could start against Portsmouth.
- Arteta said this game comes too early for Ricardo Calafiori, who is recovering from a muscle injury.
- He hinted they will rotate some of the squad to help "manage" minutes "because of what is coming again in the next few weeks".
- Arteta said they want to "continue to perform and win games", but with four away games in different competitions coming up, it is about planning his squad.
- On this being Myles Lewis-Skelly's chance to step up: "He is having chances. He's playing and he's doing well, so he needs to continue to do that."
