"I get it, Arteta is doing everything possible to win these trophies. Their next game after the international break is the FA Cup against Southampton. I'm just not keen on players pulling out of international duty. It's an honour to play for your country. It doesn't sit right with me."
"Along with Hincapie and Zubimendi, the likes of William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhaes, Jurrien Timber, Eberechi Eze and Leandro Trossard all pulled out of international duty last week after receiving call-ups."
Gabby Agbonlahor criticized Arsenal players for withdrawing from international duty, suggesting that the Premier League should impose penalties. He believes that playing for one's country is an honor and that players should not prioritize club commitments over national representation. Several Arsenal players, including Piero Hincapie and Martin Zubimendi, withdrew due to injuries. Agbonlahor's comments come as Arsenal aims for their first Premier League title since 2003-04, with many players returning early to regain fitness for upcoming matches.
