Arsenal latest: Julian Alvarez actions brought up as rivals drop out of £127m transfer battle

Saturday's 2-1 comeback win over Leeds United at the Emirates Stadium got the Gunners back to winning ways, though they suffered two additional injury setbacks .

Having beaten Napoli in their opening European game last month, Mikel Arteta will be looking to build on that start while managing a squad missing several players.
