Mikel Arteta is looking to use the upcoming international break as a chance for Arsenal to regroup following a difficult four-game winless run, with the Gunners still struggling with injuries

Martin Odegaard made his first Arsenal start since August during Sunday's draw at Chelsea and has since decided to pull out of playing for Norway during the international break

Martin Odegaard is more important to Arsenal than Mikel Arteta, who is stuck in his ways and was taught a lesson by Filippo Inzaghi in defeat to Inter.

Martin Odegaard has been ruled out of Norway's upcoming internationals in a major boost for Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta. The playmaker said: "I need to listen to my body, complete this rehab process and get my foot back in good shape."
