Arteta forced into late call with eight on Gunners' casualty list

ARSENAL could be without as many as eight players for tomorrow’s trip to Bournemouth.

Jurrien Timber (knee) and Thomas Partey (groin) will definitely be absent, although the latter could be back for next week’s crunch clash against Manchester City.

Mikel Arteta said this morning that Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard have all been unable to train this week. Of that group, Martinelli is the least likely to face Bournemouth although there is optimism around the other three.

Saka suffered a kick to his foot in the draw with Tottenham last Sunday, while Rice came off at half-time with a back problem. Martinelli and Trossard have hamstring issues.

Fabio Vieira and William Saliba were not fit enough to make the squad for Wednesday’s 1-0 win over Brentford in the Carabao Cup.

I understand it's not the done thing to compare restaurateurs to murderous mob bosses, given it's rude and, well, they're notoriously litigious. But when I think of Samyukta Nair, sometimes I hear Jack Nicholson's mutterings in The Departed, Martin Scorsese's Boston gangster flick. \"I don't want to be a product of my environment,\" Nichol- son says. \"I want my environment to be a product of me.\"

Review - Adrien Brody's power and depth shine in this colossal epic

The Brutalist, director Brady Corbet’s third feature, is a movie of such colossal size and scope it may well have been carved from marble; an epic paean to the immigrant experience in America in the wake of the Second World War.
