In the spirit of "Victoria Concordia Crescit" and giving credit to everyone who helped make the FA Cup win possible, care to help identify everyone in this picture?

The original is from Stuart Macfarlane's twitter account.
I got all the players, and some of the main staff, but I don't know who a lot of the coaches are, and they deserve to be recognized.

4 is Chris Morgan, the physio who's rejoining Liverpool this Summer
12 is Paul Akers, kitman and son of the 11-time FA Cup winner Vic
13
I'm so used to seeing Vic, I forgot Paul took over.

I thought we weren't losing our medical guy to pool. It's happening?
1
That was the team doctor, Gary O’Driscoll, who I don’t think is in the picture but had a nice moment with Arteta on the pitch at full time.

I need my video fix of him welcoming party and asking the usual "you ok with blood?" 😂

Great Arteta photoshop
11
For some reason he wasn't in any of Stu or David Price's group photos... but c'mon, he had to be in the pic.
3
Haha I just have an image in my head of him with the camera telling everyone to say cheese
3
Maybe he's off to the side going "Stu! Stu!! Focus! Depth of field! Stu! Ready... Shoot!"
Ah, wait, I figured it out. He couldn't be in the picture because he was busy hugging photographers.

Let's all float

4- Chris Morgan- the outgoing senior physio- headed to Liverpool
12- Paul Akers- kitman- Vic Akers' son if I am not long
5
5 Karl Hein

Ah, good one! I figured he was a GK or associated with them based on where he was standing, but I didn't recognize him when I looked through the players. He's extra blonde in this photo compared to his profile page.

He is another pictures with all Keepers and the Keepers coaches https://twitter.com/emimartinezz1/status/1289810334090313728

Nice, Sal Bibbo on the left, and Iñaki Caña on the right.
Interesting how most people get their initials on their kit, but Sal gets "SAL".
Also crazy that Leno is the "short" goalkeeper now. It used to be Ospina.
3
Was Sal Bibbo from Emerys team? He stayed behind?

Page is a little out of date (from Emery time) but this might help
https://web.archive.org/web/20190807164031/https://www.arsenal.com/first-team/staff
Or this https://trainingground.guru/staff-profiles/arsenal-staff-profiles
In addition to what others have said:
"13WJ?" is Will Jones
"2SV" is Sam Wilson (Strength and conditioning)
3
So, it's not just me, right? The current staff page doesn't work?
2
Yeah they removed it when Unai left
3
Pretty sure #10 is Flo, not the woman you've circled.
#3 looks like it might be Tom Allen, who is our "Lead Sports Scientist".
#2 is Steve Wilson, our Strength & Conditioning Coach.

Where’s mari ?
2
Not there, as far as I can see. Could be he's recovering in Spain. He might be the only player (other than Ozil and Guendouzi) who didn't show up, regardless of injuries.
1
It’s not unheard of tbh Theo wasn’t at the 2014 final I believe
1
Sure, I'm sure it happens. It makes a lot of sense for Mari who was injured weeks ago and probably hasn't fully moved to London since his move happened at the end of the January transfer window shortly before the world shut down due to COVID. He's probably back recovering with his family, wherever they live.

So, so far we have:
- Maybe not Flo Newton, another unidentified woman?
- Steve Wilson: Strength and Conditioning Coach
- Tom Allen: Lead Sports Scientist
- Chris Morgan: Senior Physio, heading to Liverpool this summer
- Karl Hein, U23 Goalkeeper
- ? Still unknown
- ? Still unknown
- ? Still unknown
- ? Still unknown
- Dr. Flo Newton, another team doctor
- ? Still unknown
- Paul Akers, Kitman, son of legendary kit man (and most successful Arsenal Women's manager ever) Vic Akers, OBE
- Will Jones, Assistant Kitman
