Mikel Arteta says Jurrien Timber has “a good chance” of playing again for Arsenal this season. The Netherlands international, 22, has been sidelined since suffering an ACL injury 50 minutes into his Premier League debut for the club in August. He was pictured training on the grass during Arsenal’s winter break camp in Dubai with Arteta hinting at game time with the Under-21s side in the coming weeks to get him fully up to speed. “He’s doing very well. He’s back training,” Arteta said ahead of tonight’s visit of Luton Town. “He’s not far off, the thing is that last step, he hasn’t played any minutes.” If defence wins you titles, then Arsenal must be in with a chance. Arsenal held Manchester City to a goalless draw on Sunday to maintain their one-point advantage over the champions. It was the first time City have failed to score in a home league game since October 2021, ending a run of 47 consecutive games. Two Premier League clean sheets against City in this season’s two league meetings is a source of pride for manager Mikel Arteta. “It’s extremely difficult to do that,” he said at his post-match press conference. “It shows you the commitment of every player, the discipline they showed and how they compete.” Dive deeper below...
