Wilshere, Lacazette Back Against Stoke

"Jack trained yesterday so he's OK", said Bould, who was standing in for manager Arsene Wenger in today's press conference.

"The boss is ill this morning, so it's Steve Bould covering for him", the club wrote on their Twitter handle.

Arsenal continues the race to finish in the top four this season and will ensure they win their remaining Premier Leagues games.

One of the players Arsenal need to get back to full fitness is Jack Wilshere, who was forced to miss the last two England matches by a knee injury.

"Behind closed doors I have not anyone else as hungry and determined to win football games".

He said: "I admire him immensely". It's a pleasure for me to sit next to him.

Bould has been by Wenger's side since 2012 when he replaced Pat Rice.

To a question, he said that the doors of global cricket have been opened for Pakistan and more teams will also visit Pakistan now. The three fixtures will be played on April 1, 2 and 3 at the National stadium in Karachi.

"He's doing a great job as far as I'm concerned and he's done a great job for an very bad long time".

Bould also claimed Arsenal are not prioritising the Europa League as their most likely route back into UEFA's elite club competition, despite the first leg of a winnable quarter-final against CSKA Moscow looming next week.

Asked if Wenger's desire was as strong as ever, Bould said: "Absolutely, he is remarkable".

"I'm not sure where the reports are coming from".

Midfielder Jack Wilshere was training without any problem after missing England's worldwide friendlies against the Netherlands and Italy last week with a knee injury. Alexandre Lacazette has returned to training after knee surgery and is in contention for the Stoke game.

Ramsey underwent a minor procedure on a groin problem last week but he's been able to train with the rest of the squad in recent days so I expect the 27-year-old will be passed fit to face Stoke.
