WILLIAM SALIBA will miss Arsenal’s game against Liverpool after the club decided NOT to appeal his red card.
Saliba, 23, was sent off for a last-man foul on Bournemouth striker Evanilson as he tried to cover a wayward Leandro Trossard back pass.

The centre-back was placed on the halfway line when he brought down the Cherries ace in the middle of the pitch.
On-field referee Rob Jones initially issued a yellow card for the offence.
However, VAR Jared Gillett summoned Jones over to the monitor to review the decision.
The yellow card was then replaced with a straight red to send Saliba for an early shower.
