The knock-on effect is that the Thomas Partey at right-back experiment will likely be over, as Mikel Arteta has never played with two inverted fullbacks. This leaves the door open for Takehiro Tomiyasu, who is available again after serving his one-game suspicion for a red card at Crystal Palace.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Read More:\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/08\/15\/arsenal-gabriel-magalhaes-shock-saudi-links\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u2018Terrific\u2019 Arsenal Star Linked With Move Away From Club in Shock Turn of Events; 23-Year-Old Lined up as Replacement<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The exile of Gabriel Magalhaes to the bench &#8211; is showing no sign of stopping, so expect Ben White and William Saliba to form the centre-back partnership. Despite the English transfer window slamming shut, the Brazilian international could still move to Saudi Arabia with their window open &#8211; for a further seven days.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Arsenal Recent Form and Tactics<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Partey could move into midfield to play alongside Rice, a move many Arsenal fans have been longing to see. The two played together in their impressive Community Shield victory over Man City. Playing both holding midfielders allows the Gunners to limit the impact of Bruno Fernandes on proceedings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Alongside Partey and Rice, Martin Odergaard looks likely to play the creative role, although Fabio Vieira can count himself unlucky after making an incredible impact off the bench against Fulham.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Arsenal Injuries to Consider<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It was great to see Gabriel Jesus getting his first minutes this season against Fulham after injury had postponed his start to the season.
