We're now approaching the eighth Premier League fixture of the 2014/15 campaign, but do Arsenal already have the division's biggest injury crisis?
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has confirmed influential duo Laurent Koscielny and Mesut Ozil will both miss Saturday's visit of Hull City at the Emirates, providing the Tigers a fantastic opportunity to catch the Londoners cold.
Speaking in his weekly press conference, Wenger spoke about just how tough the weekend's challenge will be, as he confirmed there's a little bit of good news concerning Aaron Ramsey.
"The Hull game is the remembrance of a big sweat in the FA Cup final," Wenger said.
"Look at the quality of the players Hull have got in, you can say they are top quality.
"Koscielny has an Achilles problem, Ozil is out (for at least six weeks) – Koscielny is not in contention for Saturday, but he will not need to have surgery.
"Ramsey will be back in full training on Monday and will be in the squad for Anderlecht."Tomas Rosicky could be available for Saturday, whilst Theo Walcott will feature in the Arsenal under-21s tomorrow night against Blackburn as he nears a comeback from his nine-month lay-off.
Hector Bellerin also looks set to feature against Steve Bruce's men, with Mathieu Debuchy unavailable and Calum Chambers suspended.Snodgrass gives something backRobert Snodgrass is keeping himself busy as he recovers from his dislocated knee injury by giving something back to grassroots football.
The City winger travelled up to his native Scotland to present 15-year-old youngster William Pollock with the Midnight League Player of the Year award.
The league offers a network of free five-a-side football events to youngsters across Scotland to help keep them off the streets.
Snodgrass believes the chance to see youngsters taking part in the game was a special experience and one that is invaluable for the country.
"I remember playing on the same pitch as these youngsters when I was coming up through the ranks," he told the Glasgow Evening Times.
"Back then we didn't have something like the Midnight Leagues where we could play in a safe environment.
"I think it's amazing for the game because it gets youngsters playing but it is also great for their communities.
"Not every kid will have the chance to play football professionally but the game is about more than that and they are learning that here.
"Anything that I can do to help them develop as players and as people is something that is really rewarding."Tigers reveal accounts
