Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta admits Mesut Ozil and Matteo Guendouzi have a lot of work to do to get back into the squad.
The Gunners have won four in a row since a switch to three at the back and face Leicester on Tuesday night with their hopes of Champions League football growing after Saturday's win at Wolves.
On Sunday night, ahead of the clash with Leicester City, both men were again brought up.
In a matter of fact tone, Arteta remarked: “It's still the situation as it was before."
Last week, the manager said: "Players that respect the values we want to implement, that they are 100 per cent committed to our culture, and players that are accountable every day for what we demand from them.
“Players that are ready to help each other, fight for each other and enjoy playing together.
"That is what I mean by being in the boat.
"If you behave like this every day, you are very, very welcome here and we want to get the best out of you and help you to enjoy your profession with us."
