Bad news for Bukayo and a big challenge for Arsenal

Morning all, a quick Christmas Eve blog for you.

The only place to start is the news that Bukayo Saka will miss ‘many weeks’ according to Mikel Arteta after tearing his hamstring during the win over Crystal Palace on Saturday evening. Speaking at his press conference yesterday, the manager spoke about how the player himself has been affected:

He was gutted. You can tell that he’s not been injured because he was really, really emotional. He was really down and we need to lift him up because it’s part of what we do.
