Arsenal has been handed a blow ahead of their match against Liverpool, with William Saliba set to miss the game.
The defender has been one of the club’s most important players in this campaign as they aim to end the season with the league title.
Saliba has missed the last two games through injury and the Gunners had been hopeful he would be fit to play their game against Liverpool, a fixture they must win.
He has formed a solid partnership with Gabriel Magalhaes in the Arsenal defence, which makes him one player their fans want to see in the team all the time.
However, a report via the Metro says he has been ruled out of the game against Liverpool, handing the Gunners a major blow.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Saliba is one man we love to see in the team all the time, but the defender should only play if he is fit enough for that.
We consider him an important player and there are several more games to play before the campaign ends.
If we rush him back to action too soon, he might suffer a relapse again.
Rob Holding hasn’t done badly as his replacement so far and we can back the Englishman to keep playing well.
I thought we knew about this at least a couple of weeks ago?
👍
Suffers? Or SUFFERED, a couple of weeks ago to be accurate!
Such slapdash use of English! Why can’t the ADMINS use English properly, for ONCE!???
Why try to make out it has JUST happened, when we all know it was some time ago!
Just tell it as it is and please stop distorting stories in a vain attempt to get extra clicks!
How come you sound so bitter?
Ayodell I suspect English is not your first language, as you confuse truth seeking with bitterness , two totally different concepts, well understood as being so by native English speakers!
Speedy recovery kid
Football is a team game.Attack and defend as a team and no such thing as its yr job to defend.
The liverpool game is tough as are all epl games.If the gunners play to their strength the gunners can and will win provided the match officials dish out the cards for career breaking tackles.
I expect robust tackles and challenges from the reds.
1-0 will do
Won’t lie, it’s a kick in the teeth when losing such influential players. Saliba and Gabriel play a high line very well for the most part. Tomi is another big loss who pocketed Salah not too long back. But we attack as well as defend as a team so I expect us to give it our all if we do that then this team can look the part, COYG focus, put your chances away give it a right go that’s all we want boys
