Arsenal news: Huge injury boost, Mesut Ozil advice, Eddie Nketiah's message to Marcelo Bielsa

Arsenal are in action on Sunday afternoon as they host Crystal Palace at the Emirates.

And Unai Emery and the supporters will be hoping they have a better day at the office than last time out, when they lost to Sheffield Untied at Bramall Lane.

Mesut Ozil is unlikely to be involved, again, but he is one of the names in our round-up of the biggest stories from around the Emirates in the last 24 hours.

All the latest news stories are below.

Nketiah's message

It was another weekend of Championship action in which Eddie Nketiah did not start for Leeds United.

The Arsenal loanee was on the bench for the Yorkshire derby with Sheffield Wednesday, with Patrick Bamford again favoured up front.

That was despite Nketiah's goal against Preston in midweek.

Nketiah was thrown on against Wednesday at half-time, though he did not manage to score on this occasion.

And the Gunners man had a message for Whites boss Marcelo Bielsa after the game.

Mesut Ozil advice

Mesut Ozil remains a big topic of conversation at the Emirates Stadium.

The German has played only twice so far this season, with Unai Emery refusing to use him.

And his absence, and Emery's refusal to discuss the reasons behind it, only mean for more questions from the media about the midfielder.

Everyone has their own opinion on the matter and Joe Cole has issued some advice to Ozil over his future.

Injury boost

Arsenal take on Crystal Palace at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

The Gunners go into the game after an interesting week - losing 1-0 at Sheffield United before coming back from 2-1 down against Vitoria in the Europa League to snatch a last-gasp win.

Palace have been in good form this season so far, and would move above the Gunners with victory at the Emirates Stadium.

Ahead of the London derby, Unai Emery has been handed a double injury boost.
