Arsenal vs Wolves: Why I benched Mkhitaryan for Iwobi – Emery

Arsenal manager, Unai Emery, has explained why he dropped Henrikh Mkhitaryan for Alex Iwobi in their Premier League clash with Wolves on Sunday.
Iwobi made a difference when he came off the bench in the Gunners’ last Premier League outing against Liverpool last week.
He set up Alexandre Lacazette’s late equaliser in the game.
Despite playing all 90 minutes in midweek against Sporting in the Europa League, Emery is confident Iwobi can have a big effect in Sunday’s match.
Asked about bringing in Iwobi for Mkhitaryan, Emery told Sky Sports, “Everybody they need to be okay for playing and help us and I think the change I made is only because they are with the performance.
“But also can start, can be on the bench, and after go inside and help us and today is starting in the first XI it’s Iwobi.”
Speaking about Danny Welbeck who has been ruled out for the rest of the season, he added, “For us every player is important and when they are playing they have the possibility also one red card, one yellow card, one injury, big or small injury, but it’s all work.
“And then every player they want today to find a victory and dedicate if we can to him.”

Jurgen Klopp storms onto pitch and rages at Liverpool star after Chelsea lows

Jurgen Klopp  made a beeline for summer signing Xherdan Shaqiri and gave him some animated feedback on his performance in Liverpool’s defeat to Chelsea on Wednesday evening. The Reds took a second-half lead at Anfield in the Carabao Cup through Daniel Sturridge, but were stung late on by a tap-in from full-back Emerson before  Eden Hazard scored an incredible solo goal to put the visitors into the next round. At full-time, Klopp exchanged pleasantries with Maurizio Sarri and the Chelsea bench, but then walked onto the pitch to seek out Shaqiri. The Swiss star had a rather frustrating evening, wasting a number of chances on the break as Chelsea pushed for an equaliser, and Klopp seemed furious with his winger. He stormed past other Liverpool players and shouted at Shaqiri, appearing to admonishing him for some mistakes he made during the match. Klopp gesticulated and pointed wildly, though did shake hands with Shaqiri – who was listening to his manager intently – to
