Doesn't it take a fair while to build up overall fitness though? Match fitness.
I wouldn't fancy sticking him in at the business end of the season if he hasn't played for more than 6 months.
If he's in full training with the rest of the squad then his fitness must be there or thereabouts.

My hunch is Arteta is going to be reluctant to sling him in unless he has to. Might be a chance to give him some minutes off the bench if we are comfortable in games.
