Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has confirmed that some key players are back in action ahead of this weekend’s Premier League encounter with rival Liverpool.

Two prominent players who were not part of the squad at the Bet365 stadium were defender Laurent Koscielny and Chile international forward Alexis Sanchez.
