Arsenal boss Arteta admits Lacazette likely to start at Man City

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta admits Alexandre Lacazette could start at Manchester City tomorrow night.

Lacazette came off the bench to hit the winner against West Ham on Saturday.

Arteta said, "It's not because of the fact he scored, it's because of the way he trains every day.

"The way he's trying, the way he played even when he wasn't scoring. He's always at his best, training, his attitude is top. The same with the others so they all have a chance."

He added: "I think we have to be at our best, that's for sure. You have any chance to win a game at the Etihad against those players, we have to be at our best. I think we are in two different processes and levels, at the moment we have to try manage those individually and collectively. We have to be at our best."
