EMILE SMITH ROWE NEWS

No role once more Smith Rowe assisted once on 13 appearances (three starts) in the Premier League.

Impact Smith Rowe failed to top 400 minutes in the Premier League for the second season in a row. His single assist was his worst return since making his debut for Arsenal as well. The midfielder has talent, clearly, but it's less and less likely that he will actually break through with Arsenal.

Plays well in rare start Smith Rowe had two shots (one on target) and created two chances during Wednesday's 2-0 win over Luton Town.

Impact Smith Rowe had a nice performance, doing even more than his numbers could suggest, like in the play that led to his team's second goal. The midfielder, who was an unused sub in five of the six previous game, shouldn't have his status changed for the upcoming weeks, but he'll hope to at least receive some playing time more regularly.

Injury not considered serious Smith Rowe (ankle) is not expected to be sidelined long-term and hasn't been ruled out versus Burnley on Saturday, per Arsenal insider Charles Watts.

Impact Smith Rowe was a surprise scratch from Sunday's clash with West Ham United before manager Mikel Arteta informed reporters that the midfielder was dealing with an ankle problem.

Impact Smith Rowe surprisingly could make it back before the Winter break. That's a nice bit of news, especially as injuries elsewhere have left Arsenal lacking some depth. It's been an unlucky season for Smith Rowe, as he finally found some form and opportunity immediately before suffering the serious knee injury. If he can come back fully fit it seems like he may slowly be earning some trust from Arteta at least.

Impact With Martin Odegaard rested against the Premier League's bottom club, Smith Rowe was making his first league start of the season and will be delighted to have picked up his first attacking return.

Impact Smith Rowe played 47 minutes on Saturday. He came on as a sub after 22 for Leandro Trossard and was subbed out after 69 for Reiss Nelson. The 22-year-old was a live wire when he came onto the field but apart from the assist his contribution could have been more impactful. This probably led to his being replaced by Nelson. From seven appearances (no starts) this was his first assist.

Plays for U21s Smith Rowe featured for the U21s on Monday in his return from a long-term injury.

Impact Smith Rowe has been on the bench the last two matches for the senior team, though he's stepped onto the pitch just once since early September because of injury. It doesn't seem like he'll have a role the rest of the season unless injuries start popping up. The addition of Leandro Trossard means Smith Rowe is a tad further down the depth chart, especially given his lack of pitch time.

Available against Aston Villa Smith Rowe (thigh) is a bench option for Saturday's game versus Aston Villa.

Impact Smith is fit after sitting out the last three matches with a thigh injury. He has featured just five times this season due to multiple injuries, logging two shots (one on target), three chances created, two crosses (one accurate), and two corners.

Remains late call Smith Rowe (thigh) will be training Friday and "if he's fine" he'll be in the squad Saturday against Aston Villa, according to manager Mikel Arteta.

Impact It's an ongoing process for Smith Rowe, so even if he's available, there's still a chance he won't make an appearance. He hasn't been completely healthy since the first month of the season and given that time off, he's a bit further down the depth chart, so even minutes from the bench aren't guaranteed for Smith Rowe anymore.

Out again Wednesday Smith Rowe (thigh) will remain sidelined for Wednesday's clash with Manchester City.

Impact Smith Rowe has just one minute of action in the club's last 21 contests while dealing with injury concerns. Even once cleared to play, Smith Rowe will be hard-pressed to secure regular minutes in the starting XI and figures to serve primarily as a substitute option.

When healthy, he was getting consistent minutes which led to 10 goals last season.
