James Benge has provided an update on Emile Smith Rowe ahead of Arsenal's Boxing Day clash with West Ham.
Smith Rowe has been out for a long time now after having groin surgery back in September.
According to Benge, the Boxing Day clash is likely to come too soon for the player. The Gunners and the player are taking their time to make sure he is 100 % ready on his return.
Smith Rowe has made overall just 4 appearances this season.
