Kieran Tierney is not happy with what’s going on at Arsenal. He was the main left back at Arsenal last season. Now he has been dropped and is down the pecking order. Arteta prefers a player who could play the inverted role. Zinchenko is perfect for that role that’s why he always gets the nudge ahead of Tierney. The problem came when Arteta started playing Tomiyasu and Kiwior ahead of Tierney. Evethough, Tierney was the only left back available to Arteta.
Kieran Tierney will probably be on his way out this summer
David Hiller believes that Kieran Tierney genuinely isn’t happy at Arsenal.
Speaking on the Highbury Squad YouTube channel, the pundit gave his verdict on the Scottish left-back. He noted that he doesn’t think the defender is happy at all with life at Arsenal.
Indeed, Hillier says that Tierney wants to be much close to his family up in Scotland. While the player loves Arsenal, his heart is elsewhere right now as he really wants to be closer to home.
He further went on to say:-
“We were talking about disappointments, and I will say there were a couple of players who had the potential to do a lot better this season who didn’t I will say Kieran Tierney, he could’ve worked harder at being happy, he could’ve given a bit more,”
“Tierney’s situation is nothing to do with playing a different way or adapting his game. I’m telling you, the boy is not happy, you can tell a mile off. He wants to be with his family. I truly believe I can see it in Tierney’s face, he loves Arsenal, but his heart is somewhere else. There’s a club up there who have just gotten into the Champions League who aren’t far away from where his family is. It’s about happy players.”
