147 Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has given an update on Jorginho ahead of the match against Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool at Anfield.
Arteta has also noted if Thomas Partey or Mohamed Elneny could play for Arsenal against Liverpool.
So, what has Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said about Jorginho? Let’s take a look.
Jorginho may not play for Arsenal vs Liverpool
Well, Liverpool and Arsenal will lock horns with each other in the Premier League this weekend.
The match between Jurgen Klopp’s side and Mikel Arteta’s team will be held at Anfield and will be played on Saturday evening.
I believe that it is going to be a cracker. I am expecting goals from both teams. After all, Arsenal have scored 35 goals in 17 Premier League matches so far this season. Liverpool have found the back of the net 36 times.
Arsenal, though, have injury issues. As you can see below, manager Mikel Arteta has said that Ghana international defensive midfielder Thomas Partey is not available for the match against Liverpool at Anfield.
Arteta has noted that Jorginho is a doubt for the match. The Italy international midfielder has a foot problem.
Jorginho has made four starts and seven substitute appearances in the Premier League and has scored one goal in three starts and two substitute appearances in the UEFA Champions League for Arsenal this campaign.
Jorginho could be a big miss for Arsenal vs Liverpool
I believe that Jorginho could be a big miss for Arsenal. Yes, the 32-year-old is not a regular in the Gunners’ starting lineup, but he has a wealth of experience and knows how to handle big games.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta recently said that Jorginho is “one of the most intelligent players” he has coached, noting how his teammates listen to him.
Liverpool play at a very high tempo, and you need someone like Jorginho who is measured in his approach and knows how to slow things down.
