Arsenal face Sheffield United in the Premier League on Monday to earn three valuable points as the title race heats up.
Jurrien Timber has been sidelined since making his Premier League debut. However he returned to training as a first team earlier this week.
That led to speculation that he could make an appearance for Sheffield United but unfortunately Mikel Arteta turned it down.
Asked about Timber fitness Arteta told reporters Sorry Jurrien is still not fit enough to be part of the team on Monday.
Arteta was then asked about the center-back behavior when faced with a problem where he answered that it was physical.
And the medical staff is interested in his behavior.
Now we have to manage it because it was the last stage of that difficult injury but I think he did. That right.
