Super Sunday dey come, and the team no wan show face go Anfield without their main guys like Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard (E be like say dem no go fit make am o).
Last week, Arsenal scatter Leeds United for field, wey dem win 5-0, but two major players don sharp sharp land for injury hospital. Bukayo wey dey do shakara with hin hamstring, Arteta talk say he go sit down for bench for weeks. “No be surgery, e no bad like the last one,” he talk. “Bale e touch opponent, change gear, and boom! Him don land for injury again,” na wetin Arteta yarn as he dey explain wetin dey happen.
*Sad face emoji here* (E no easy for fans wey dey wait for Saka to dey show hin magic for pitch). As for Odegaard, na big question mark remain for im matter. Dem no sure if he go fit play after him shoulder turn wahala. Biko, wetin happen for football these days? Injury no dey carry originality come again.

Arteta talk say we go need plenty patience with am as e dey recover. “I dey pity for the boy, e don dey try heal from previous injury. Suddenly, him land for another wahala. But na wetin we signed up for, sha. We go just roll with di punches,” he talk. (Football na game wey vex most times, na wetin dem dey call profession).
Mikel sabi as the team dey gather headache for injury front. E happen say Ben White and Christian Norgaard no fit play for Leeds match too, but e still dey hope those guys go fit recover before dem land for Merseyside.
Injury dey do Arsenal like ‘who go sit down for front row of cinema’ – everybody wan see, but dem no fit enter. Poor Saka go join Gabriel Jesus wey still dey gree for bench since last season. No be small wahala o.
