Image: Villareal suffer injury blow ahead of Europa League second-leg

Villarreal will be without defender Juan Foyth against Arsenal on Thursday evening, after the club announced that he had suffered a hamstring injury.

The Argentine centre-back was amongst their better performers in the first-leg as his side earned a 2-1 advantage, leaving the tie very much in the balance.

Foyth’s side hadn’t conceded whilst he was on the pitch, with him being replaced minutes before his side conceded the penalty.

Will Foyth’s absence be a boost in our bid to reach the final?

  1. It will be a factor. Whether a minor or major one remains to be seen, though my instinct says it will be a minor factor only and of far more relevance will be how we are selected setv up and how well, or not, we play. In other words, just like most matches between teams of broadly similar potential and ability as these two teams are. Much will depend on Tierney being match fit and us having a proper central striker.
    I also want MARTINELLI in the team from now on as first choice and no more scrawny lightweight (in every sense of the word), Nketiah!
