The manager initially remained coy, stating: &#8220;Let&#8217;s see how he is. He&#8217;s evolving really well, but let&#8217;s see for tomorrow.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>However, during a pre-match interview with Sky Sports, Arteta explained exactly why the Brazil international was left out. The Spaniard said: &#8220;He had a slight tension in his groin, he hasn&#8217;t done a pre-season. He had only four or five days before that game (Community Shield). It is a lot of new stuff for him as well, and we need to take it bit-by-bit.&#8221; Consequently, the extended layoff means the midfielder is set to miss the Coventry clash tonight, alongside upcoming domestic tests against Aston Villa, Chelsea and possibly Sunderland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"During his pre-match press conference on Thursday, Arteta was asked about the condition of Guimaraes following his substitution&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":591949,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[4026,172527,85,46,2619,105],"class_list":["post-591948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-arsenal","tag-b-guimaraes","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-premier-league","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/591948","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=591948"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/591948\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/591949"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=591948"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=591948"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=591948"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
