Arsenal has been dealt a fresh injury blow with Kieran Tierney now set for another spell on the sidelines.
The impressive Scotsman has been one of Arsenal’s best players in this campaign but has regularly missed action through injury.
His recent injury setback came after he clashed with James Milner in Liverpool’s 3-0 win over the Gunners.
The incident happened just before the first half ended and they withdrew him after being treated on the pitch.
Mail Sport says he is now set to undergo a scan within the next 48 hours, which would reveal the extent of his injury and how long it would sideline him.
Losing Tierney will be a major setback for Mikel Arteta’s side at this end of the season.
The Gunners are battling to play European football in the next campaign and have just 8 more games to earn that through the Premier League table.
They can also achieve that if they win the Europa League and Tierney has been a key part of their performance in both competitions.
Arsenal will face Slavia Prague in their next competitive game and it is a must-win game for them now after their loss to Liverpool.
That Arsenal let both Kolasinac and Maitland-Niles to leave the club leaving Tierney as the sole option at left back continues to baffle me.
Shows just how well our beloved club is being run these days 😩😭
Oh please. The two you mentioned were below average. There is much more dead wood to burn.
I don’t think Kolasinac is below average. He is a wing-back who was repeatedly used as a left center back and a full back under Arteta.
YOU DONT THINK HE IS BELOW AVERAGE? YE GODS! It is astounding what SOME people think! He was in fact not merely way below average but also utter rubbish.
right back: Bellerin left back: Tierney
Cedric Cedric
Chambers Saka
AMN out on loan to gain match experience
Kolasinac nowhere near our standars
We are officially now mid table mediocrity.
West Ham are 4th in the table, we are 10th, let that sink in.
Our last hope to salvage something this season was the Europa League, I say was because now I believe it’s gone, out of our reach, no Tierney, a keeper who is not performing well, a flakey defence, clueless midfield and a powder puff attack. Unless there is a major turn around, our season is over on Thursday.
Love KT but he’s far too injury prone made of glass. Players today have no toughness a little knock and they are out for months it’s pathetic.
We have 40 points + so we should thank our lucky stars !
I hope Arsenal will stop buying Big name players above 29 years old. We are not an old age home. Let Arteta give our youngsters game time, they are hungry to make their names too and they will deliver.
I wonder why Arteta does not like Saliba?. Our back line is weak and he let go of a good defender. I think Saliba is far better than Holding and Luiz. They are both slow and erratic. Look at how Fofana is performing at Leicester City. Arteta must give Saliba a chance.
Please Saliva? Better than Holding and Luiz????? Please say something nice.
I guess I just need Mari and Holding alongside Chambers and Cedric…
Get back Xhaka to that DM alongside Cebaillos
Start Lacazete flanked by Pepe, Smith Odegaard.
I pray Saka makes it to the game.
