It was a demanding clash against Liverpool that may have taken its toll on Unai Emery's squad.
It was a demanding night at Anfield as Arsenal played out a 5-5 draw with Liverpool in the Carabao Cup fourth round.
However after going the distance to a penalty shoot-out, it seems that the clash may have taken its toll on Unai Emery's squad.
The Gunners face the prospect of being without three players for the weekend's clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Sead Kolasinac is one of the players who is a doubt.
The full-back was brought off after 82 minutes of the clash at Anfield and was replaced by Kieran TIerney for the closing stages of the clash.
Kolasinac was spotted making his way out of the stadium after the match and appeared to be limping, suggesting that taking him off may have been because of a knock.
He wasn't the only player who limped out of the stadium either, with Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Joe Willock also struggling.
While it remains to be seen whether these knocks are anything substantial - or merely the result of an extremely demanding contest against Jurgen Klopp's side - remains to be seen.
But one thing is for certain and that's that Unai Emery will be hoping that the trio's knocks aren't anything serious and that they could be in contention for the clash with Wolves on Saturday.
