Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has been putting his players through their paces at their warm-weather training camp in Dubai.
The Gunners squad jetted to the UAE last week, and will start heading back to London on Wednesday.
Arsenal were left reeling by a difficult January transfer window in which they lost 13 players and signed just three.
Of those three, two will join in the summer, and the other is a signing for the Gunners academy.
January was also difficult on the pitch, with Arsenal failing to win a game all month.

Hopefully these last few days will see the Gunners recharged and ready to return to form in the league.
Arteta has also had the chance to keep tabs on some of Arsenal’s most talented youngsters.
And on Tuesday, Hale End defender Mazeed Ogungbo was pictured in training.
The 19-year-old has come through the ranks at Hale End and earned promotion to the Under-23s last summer.
In August last year, Ogungbo also penned his first professional contract at Arsenal.
The Republic of Ireland youth international is naturally a left-back but has also stepped up to play at centre-back.
Jeorge Bird has described Ogungbo as a ‘no-nonsense’ defender who ‘relishes pushing forward and delivering dangerous crosses’.
To date, the youngster has made 48 appearances for Arsenal’s U18s and 26 for the U23s, as per Transfermarkt.
Ogungbo is yet to make his senior Gunners debut – could Arteta give him some minutes this season?
