The curse of arsenal injuries does not know the limits. Just as the Gunners welcomed Bukayo Saka again to the fold, they were run over by another form of shape in shape.
Arsenal“S ‘Star Boy” returned to action last Tuesday and marked his comeback against Fulhamrevealing -in the worship of the people of the emirates. But the celebrations were a bit silenced after news emerging The injury to hamstring.
The Brazilian Center retired at the beginning of the clash with the Cottagers and will not come out this season, which means that it will miss the quarterfinals’ meetings of the crucial champions league against the champions of Europe reigning Real Madrid.
Mikel Arteta will have to find a way to manage without his nutrition center against the force of the Madrid line, but this will be far from simple.
Below are several possible solutions for Arteta.
With Riccardo Calafieri currently marked with a knee injury and its uncertain return date, Jakub Kiwior is the only natural replacement of the Arsenal by Gabriel. The Poland International was the artist man directed from the bench against Fulham and then From the beginning to Everton.
Not for the first time in his Arsenal career, the 25 -year -old could not completely convince himself when he filled the shoes above him in the penetration order. Saliba and Gabriel are halves center of Elite and are incredibly difficult to replace, but Kiwior is far from their prominent level.
The International Poland will have immense difficulties in managing Kylian Mbappe and Madrid the devastators of Madrid inward, but Arteta has few other options in the heart of his defense.
The feedback and the background center are very different positions, but there is some crossover. Having someone with a natural defensive mindset that covers an unknown position can be incredibly useful and Jurrien Timber and Ben White have shown their ability to play in the defense center previously.
White was a half of the regular center before reaching the emirates and the wood has been deployed in the paper above with Ajax and Arsenal. If Arteta has no complete and absolute faith in Kiwior, he could move to the center.
The good news for Arteta is that White returned from injuries Against Everton And Timber was enough to present to Goodison Park, having suffered a scare of injuries against the Cottagers. Both are waiting if Arteta needs more mobility against Madrid.
Thomas Partey was a Swiss Army knife for the Arsenal in recent times, which was more often filled to the right this season due to defensive injuries consisting of artillers. However, the Atletico Atlético de Madrid former champion could face family enemies as an emergency center.
It is unlikely to give the availability of other options mentioned, but Arteta could ask his leading agent in the heart of defense if required. Knowing the luck of Arsenal, it could be necessary for at least one of the legs.
