The Arsenal manager, Arsène Wenger, has admitted he is concerned by Granit Xhaka’s disciplinary record before Sunday’s north London derby at home to Tottenham. But after starting it with a comeback win against Ludogorets in the Champions League, Wenger is confident he can reverse that recent trend. “It’s a big home game for us and we have an opportunity to show we have an interesting role to play in this Premier League,” Wenger said. Theo Walcott looks likely to be fit after the in-form forward missed two matches with a hamstring injury. The derby looks to have come too early for Cazorla however, while there is new concern over Kieran Gibbs.
