After losing Ryan Fredericks and Tomas Soucek over recent weeks the manager was delighted to learn from his medical staff this morning that the squad which triumphed over Southampton is fit and ready to go again against the Gooners.
And most will hope the boss sticks with that team which provided such a fine attacking performance against Saints where Antonio, Haller and Bowen proved the ultimate match winners.
With no further injuries after top level performances against Liverpool and Southampton the squad would not be fearing a trip to 10th placed Arsenal who tonight face Portsmouth n a fifth round FA Cup tie.
The north Londoners haven’t been in the greatest form over the last six PL games having won just two of them in what by their standards has been a lack lustre season.
