Arsenal manager Unai Emery has said he hopes Laurent Koscielny will be fit to face West Ham United in the Premier League after the defender was injured before the 3-0 FA Cup win at Blackpool on Saturday.
The Frenchman missed the third-round clash after he sustained a back injury in the warm-up, but Emery has calmed fears about a long layoff.
According to Charles Watts of Football.London, Emery revealed why he omitted the player after naming him in his team.
"I hope it [Koscielny's injury] is not a lot," said Emery.
