Arsenal will reportedly miss another key player for their match against Leeds United. The player is also another full-back in the form of Kieran Tierney.
Hence, the Gunners currently do not have back-ups on both the left and right full back positions. The player responsible for the injury to Tierney is a Manchester City player.
ARSENAL DEALT WITH ANOTHER INJURY BLOW AHEAD OF THE MATCH AGAINST LEEDS UNITED
According to reports, Arsenal will not have Kieran Tierney available for the match against Leeds United. This is after he suffered an injury because of the tackle from Manchester City midfielder Rodri. Rodri also made the dangerous tackle on Martin Odegaard. However, Odegaard quickly got up and played the whole game for Norway.
However, Arsenal full back Kieran Tierney had to withdraw in the 2-0 historic win for Scotland against Spain. Hence, the Gunners have already expressed their disappointment on social media. They think that Rodri is trying to sabotage their title challenge. However, a report also claimed that injury is not serious and he should be back after the Leeds United game.
OLEKSANDR ZINCHENKO AND BEN WHITE HAVE TO AVOID PROBLEMS FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will have to make sure that Zinchenko and White get some rest if they are winning the match. This is because Tomiyasu will certainly miss the rest of the season because of the injury against Sporting CP. Hence, Ben White is the only natural right-back available in the squad. Whereas, Kieran Tierney will also surely have further tests to determine the exact injury.
Therefore, both Zinchenko and White are the only fully fit available full-backs for Arsenal. Therefore, they also must take care that they do not make careless tackles and get red cards. There is also a doubt on the fitness of William Saliba for the game against Leeds United. Hence, Leeds United will definitely back themselves to draw the game.
However, Arsenal have to win the rest of the games this season. This is because second placed Manchester City have the capability of overcoming an eight point lead. City already have the experience of winning multiple Premier League titles in the past season.
