SBI has a mention about ox having groin inflammation.

Jeremy Wilson also wrote about this in the Telegraph this morning, but also says he should still be OK to play at Liverpool on Sunday.

Wenger giving the team 3 full days off after Newcastle win to spend some Christmas time with their families, so no training until Wednesday. Also benefits with having an extra day playing at Anfield on Sunday.

Ox was awesome in central midfield in that Newcastle game. We need him in that same form in the middle with what looks now to be a firing front 4 of Cazorla behind Welbeck, Giroud and Alexis to scare the sh*t out of the Scousers!

Wanted to come back with an edit that I'm seeing tweets now going around that the Guardian is reporting that both The Ox and Walcott should be in the squad to face Liverpool on Sunday. Ox in the starting 11 and Theo on the bench. Chambers is of course back from his suspension.

I believe the only change that should be made to the 11 that faced Newcastle is Chambers slotting back in at center back with Debuchy sliding back over to his right back position. I hope the rest of the team is exactly the same!
