West Ham v Arsenal: match preview

This article is more than 5 years old

The focus will be on Marko Arnautovic when West Ham host Arsenal. He has made it clear he wants West Ham to let him move to China and it will be fascinating to see if he is in the right frame of mind against Unai Emery’s side, who have welcomed Hector Bellerín, Shkodran Mustafi, Nacho Monreal and Mesut Özil back to training. Arsenal, who are pushing hard for a place in the top four, will hope the forward’s focus is elsewhere. Jacob Steinberg
