Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta admits he's been joining training to make up numbers.

Injuries and academy commitments have numbers down at London Colney - which has seen Arteta joining drills and bounce games.

"Well it was forced! It was nothing that I wanted to do, but yeah, we had one or two players and some academy players that could not join," he confirmed.

"It was good - it was a good work out. I lost some weight and I didn't get injured."

Asked about tackling, he added: "I did a few yes but I didn't get anybody injured!"
