Having rediscovered their ruthless ways in Europe, Arsenal bid to subject Manchester United to the PSV Eindhoven treatment in Sunday’s Premier League blockbuster at Old Trafford.
Mikel Arteta‘s team defied their injury crisis up front to make Champions League history on Tuesday evening, becoming the first side to score seven goals away from home in a knockout match with a 7-1 obliteration of PSV in the first leg of their last-16 tie.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the Gunners’ latest injury and suspension news before their showdown with Man United, who take on Real Sociedad in the first leg of their Europa League last-16 battle on Thursday.
