Two games, two defeats, two trophies slip out of Arsenal's grasp. If they are to grab Champions League and/or Premier League glory they must bounce back this week.

Mikel Arteta called on his side to show what they are made of after the FA Cup loss at Southampton followed a Carabao Cup final defeat to Man City - but his selection options are significantly limited amid an injury crisis.

Eleven Arsenal players ruled themselves out of international duty during the March break. That led to some jibes about the Gunners saving their energies for club football. But Arteta's selection at Southampton and a subsequent open training session on Monday suggested the Arsenal boss has serious problems on his hands.

With Sporting away in the first leg of a Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday and then Bournemouth at the Emirates Stadium in a tricky Premier League encounter on Saturday, Arteta may need to delve deep into his squad to find solutions amid a season-defining run of games.
