Gabriel Jesus - Should see time against Sheffield Jesus looks to return to the field against Sheffield United on Monday, as manager Mikel Arteta stated, "Well he's fit enough, but knowing how long he will last is something differe...
Impact Jesus returned to the team sheet last week but went unused following a four-match absence due to a knee issue. However, now he appears to be set to play and earn the start against Sheffield. The biggest question around the player at the moment is how long he will last, as he is not expected to play the full 90 but should still be a part of the game for a decent amount of time. The club will just want to avoid any injuries and preserve their player for the rest of the season as they stay tight-knit in the title race, with the forward missing a total of nine matches this season due to a plethora of injuries.

Oleksandr Zinchenko - Facing late fitness test Zinchenko (calf) appears to be facing a late fitness test for Monday's match against Sheffield United, as manager Mikel Arteta told reporters, "We have to wait and see, especially...
Impact Zinchenko will be a game-time decision Monday, awaiting a late test on his calf issue to decide if he will end his four-match absence and face Sheffield. If the defender is ready to go, he will most likely be given the start, as he has started in 20 of the 27 matches he has been an option for this season. However, if the club decides to preserve the player and take his return cautiously, Takehiro Tomiyasu could also get the start with him possibly returning from an undisclosed issue, or Jakub Kiwior will get the start again, as he has started the past four matches while the other two have been out.

Takehiro Tomiyasu - Questionable for Sheffield match Tomiyasu (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Monday's match against Sheffield United, as manager Mikel Arteta told reporters, "We have to wait and see, especially with the la...
Impact Tomiyasu looks to be close to getting back on the field after his long string of injuries, as he has only played once since Dec. 5, missing 13 matches due to a combination of injuries and his international duty during the Asian Cup. There is a chance the defender could start in his first match back, but after a long absence and with Oleksandr Zinchenko also possibly returning, that seems unlikely, with the defender probably just serving off the bench. However, he hopes to see the start in future matches, as before the injury, he had started in six consecutive contests, registering six interceptions, nine clearances and 10 tackles to go along with three assists on four chances created during that span.

Thomas Partey - Expected to play Monday Partey (thigh) is considered an option for Monday's match against Sheffield United, as manager Mikel Arteta stated, "Thomas had a session before the last game and now he's done two...
Impact Partey is finally set to return, having overcome his thigh injury after four months on the sidelines. This is a decent addition back into the team for the Gunners, as they not only added depth but have another versatile option, with Partey being able to play in the defense and midfield. He had started the first three games of the season at right-back but should most likely be expected to earn a bench role Monday, not immediately getting the start after such a long absence. However, the midfielder will probably remain a rotational player for the rest of the season, getting time here and there but not starting too much, as Ben White has the spot locked up at right-back, and the midfield is already loaded with talent.

Gabriel Jesus - Ramping up fitness Jesus was viewed in team training Wednesday, continuing to work on his fitness ahead of Monday's match against Sheffield United.
Impact Jesus is still trying to up his fitness levels following his knee issues, as he was added to the team sheet for Saturday's match against Newcastle but went unused off the bench in the win. It has now been five matches since the forward saw the pitch last, but he will hope to change that Monday, hoping to earn some time and possibly the start when they take on Sheffield United, as he has started in all but five matches this season when healthy.

Thomas Partey - Trains with group Partey (thigh) was spotted taking part in team training Wednesday ahead of Monday's contest against Sheffield United
Impact Partey has been on the verge of a return over the past couple of weeks due to still not being fully fit from his thigh injury, but after training with the team Wednesday, he looks to be the closest he has been to seeing the field in some time. This gives the midfielder a decent chance of making the team sheet for Monday's match against Sheffield United, as it would be a perfect game for him to return to, facing a much weaker team that Arsenal should smoothly dispose of. If he is given the nod, he will most likely only reside on the bench, possibly getting some time to test his legs after the long absence.

Jurrien Timber - Running on grass Timber (knee) was viewed running on grass, the club announced Wednesday.
Impact Timber is starting the next parts of his rehabilitation process, having gotten on the grass to run after returning to ball work about a month and a half ago. The defender is expected to still return before the end of the season, so this is a positive development in his recovery, as he will now hope to get on the field before the end of April after only appearing in the first match of the season before being set for knee surgery.

It was only his third goal contribution of the season, however, they have all come over his past five appearances.
