Mikel Arteta claims there has been 'no time' to prepare for Arsenal's game against Leeds United as the Gunners flew back from their Europa League clash with Bodo/Glimt and headed Leeds the following day for their Premier League tie

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says 'there's no time' to prepare for their game against Leeds United after their Europa League endeavors on Thursday.

The Gunners made it three wins from three in the Europa League with victory over Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt on Thursday night, and travel up to Elland Road to face Leeds United on Sunday with the hope of remaining top of the Premier League.

Mikel Arteta's men faced the unenviable task of flying back to London from Norway on Friday, before heading up to Leeds the following day, the Spaniard bemoaning the lack of preparation his team are able to have after playing on Thursday nights.
