Odegaard joy, Timber boost - three things spotted in Arsenal training before Bayern Munich
Arsenal completed their final training session in England on Tuesday ahead of their Champions League quarter-final second leg against Bayern Munich. The Gunners will be aiming to immediately bounce back from this past weekend's defeat to Aston Villa, which significantly dented their Premier League title hopes.
Following a 2-2 draw against the German champions at Emirates Stadium last Tuesday, Arsenal enter the clash knowing they must beat Bayern on the night to advance to the semi-finals. Ahead of the clash, significant concern surrounded Martin Odegaard following Arteta's injury admission, however those worries have alleviated.
Elsewhere, Jurrien Timber was captured continuing his rehabilitation from a knee injury picked up last August. Despite the defeat to Villa, spirits certainly seemed high at London Colney, with Arteta ensuring his players were focused on the task at hand in Germany.

During Tuesday's session, Odegaard was all smiles with Arteta, Kai Havertz and Oleksandr Zinchenko in the rondo that took place before the session began.
