da betsul： Arsenal have provided an injury update on two senior players, but there is a mixture of bad news as although Kieran Tierney’s may comeback may soon be on the cards, it has been outweighed by the injury to Lucas Torreira.
da luck： The midfielder sustained a fractured ankle when he was tackled in the match against Portsmouth on Monday, when he was forced off at Fratton Park.
Such an injury can sideline players for several weeks so the Uruguayan faces a battle to get back on the pitch before the end of the season, and that is likely to hinder Mikel Arteta in his team selection.
Many fans have made their disappointment clear but have mostly taken the opportunity to wish the player well, though one supporter did criticise the club for the delay in announcing the injury Torreira sustained.
Despite that negative, Arsenal fans should be buoyed by the return of Tierney, a player who has spent far too long on the sidelines so far, which will be as frustrating for him as supporters.
He has made 12 appearances for the Gunners and could find it difficult to force his way back into the side due to the form of Bukayo Saka at left-back, though the Arsenal boss now has the option to play the youngster higher up the pitch.

The Scot is back in full training at least, and with the North London outfit continuing their FA Cup journey Tierney could prove very useful in the forthcoming games, as Arteta may be keen to rest and rotate, particularly as Saka’s 29 appearances are a lot for an 18-year-old.
