Arsenal's Laurent Koscielny: Out for season opener
Koscielny will not play on Sunday against Liverpool, as he has yet to return to training following the European Championship, ESPN FC reports.
Analysis:
The end of Koscielny's extended break is now becoming more important, as Arsenal will be without Per Mertesacker (knee) and Gabriel (ankle) for the immediate future, leaving Rob Holding and Calum Chambers as the likely two starting centre backs to begin the season.
