Manchester United travel to Arsenal for what is the weekend’s biggest fixture in the Premier League. It’s a clash between two top four teams, one of which is still in the Premier League title race, at least for the time being. Gunners boss Arsene Wenger met the media a couple of hours ago to hold his weekly press conference and we have the video for you, via YouTube, embedded below.
The session covered many different topics, including the widely held belief that Jose Mourinho will park the bus tomorrow.
The Frenchman answered a question about the idea that his counterpart will be ultra-pragmatic in his approach on Saturday.
Other topics covered in the Wenger media session include the match injury and fitness report, the future of Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil (who’s been incessantly linked with a move to this weekend’s opponent) and the unfortunate situation with Santi Cazorla.
Odds: Arsenal 6/4, Man Utd 6/4, draw 23/1o
