Saliba is an Arsenal player, and unless he wants to pull a Tevez and go and play golf during the day, he’ll report back for duty at Arsenal, unless Mikel and the rest of the management team decide to send him back to Marseille.Nah, Arteta saying Saliba must come back is just talk for the press in reply to Saliba telling the world that he wants to stay at Marseille and play CL. This was a PR move, don't take it too seriously. Saliba has more leverage here than Arsenal.
As a rule, take everything Arteta says to the press with a grain of salt and a huge dollop of cynicism.
And for the record, I think Saliba actually has a strong case to make to Arteta to go back, because yes, it’s a World Cup year and he will have a better chance over there to make the squad by playing week in week out there. So I think it will happen.
Come on, let’s not get carried away with the Arteta dislike.
