From the source

William Saliba is back in first-team training after four months out with a back injury, and he could even be involved against Slavia Prague tonight.

That’s obviously great news for Arsenal. But given how well Ezri Konsa and Gabriel have fared in his stead, keeping clean sheets in each of the last three Premier League games, including Sunday’s win at Anfield, it’s also handed Mikel Arteta a huge decision.

We asked fans on Talking Points how they would get Saliba back into the starting XI, and it quickly turned into a proper debate. For some fans, it’s simple: the players who have kept Arsenal winning up to now this season deserve to keep their places.
