Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has been speaking to the media before Saturday's Premier League game against Everton at Emirates Stadium (kick-off 15:00 BST).

Here are the key lines from his news conference:

• On Bukayo Saka's injury after coming off against Bayern Munich: "We need a few more scans and opinions from the specialists. Let's be a little bit patient so we can give a definitive answer." The Gunners fear the 25-year-old could be out for two months.

• When asked if it could affect the winger's style of play: "I don't know what's going to happen in the future. It's been muscles, it's been tendons as well, which is something else. That's not just with Bukayo, with many other players as well. We discussed that last year and that's why we need to keep an eye on him."

• On potential options to replace him: "I'm extremely happy with how Eze reacted to the previous game and the impact he had on the team and the performance that he put in. [Max Dowman] is something inevitable. He's training and every time he's got a moment to play, he's showing that he's a player who is going to impact the game, so for sure he's going to have minutes."

• When asked if Saka is "losing robustness": "He's certainly been different in the last year or so, but the demands that go into the players are immense with club and international competitions, and the time between games is getting narrower. There are less than 66 or 67 hours between games, and every hour is important. The support would be really appreciated, and it's the same for every team."

• Defenders Riccardo Calafiori and Piero Hincapie are both available to play but the former is "in a different place" because he had a full pre-season.

• Arteta said Martin Zubimendi needs to "earn the right to play" after struggling for game time: "He a had a few [games], then he had an injury and had one game when he was almost fully available to play some minutes. I need to find the right games to give him the opportunity and I know what his response is going to be when I do that. He has been exceptional in whatever role he has had to assume. He is a player who deserves more minutes."
