Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger says goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny was not dropped for the game against Stoke City for smoking in the dressing room.
Reports revealed that the 24-year-old smoked in the showers after the away defeat against Southampton on New Year's Day and was an unused substitute in the Gunners' 3-0 win on Sunday.
"I do not want to talk too much about [why I dropped Wojciech Szczesny]," Wenger explained.
"The more I talk, the less I inform you. [But] no, honestly, no, [it was not a disciplinary action].
"I don't know [how] he felt. You know how you can take a decision.
"I haven't made a decision [on whether Ospina will keep his place]. It was a decision for today's game. Szczesny is our No 1 competing with Ospina and Martinez - that's our job."
Germany international Mesut Ozil made his long-awaited comeback for the Gunners after replacing Olivier Giroud in the 73rd minute.
But the Frenchman insists the 26-year-old needs weeks before returning to full fitness.
"He's [Mesut Ozil is] fit," Wenger declared.
"He lacks match fitness, he's fit physically. It's getting used to contact again. It will take two to three more weeks."
