Gunners boss pleased with his options ahead of London derby with Saka also coming back

LONDON - Arsenal are very excited to play Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-finals, but they will not be distracted from their English Premier League duties as they switch their focus to Chelsea, manager Mikel Arteta insisted.
The Gunners thrashed PSV Eindhoven 9-3 on aggregate to earn a last-eight spot against 15-time winners Real, a team they have played only once before in the competition, knocking the Spanish giants out over two legs in the last 16, en route to the 2006 final.
"Fascinating draw, we play the club with the biggest history in the competition," Arteta said on March 14.
"Very excited to play against them, but before that we have some big matches in the Premier League."
A three-match winless run has left second-placed Arsenal 15 points behind Liverpool as the title slips away from them, and they are now looking over their shoulder with Nottingham Forest and Chelsea catching up.
