Kieran Tierney finally made the move to the Emirates on deadline day from Celtic, penning a long-term deal in a transfer worth £25 million.
The left-back is currently out of action with a groin problem, however, his recent antics on social media has already made him a firm favourite amongst supporters.
The Scot changed his profile picture on Twitter on Thursday evening to a photo of him reacting to an image shown by an Arsenal staff member.

Could this be a sign of things to come? Arsenal supporters will be hoping so. Tierney’s brilliant sense of humour will only increase his popularity amongst the majority of Gunners fans, which will only help him when he makes his long awaited debut.
The left-back has all the capabilities to excel in the Premier League, so he’ll more than likely be Unai Emery’s first choice when fully fit.
The 22-year-old is strong defensively and also likes to join the attack when given the chance. He’ll happily play in a back four or five, two formations Emery has used during his time in London, so at £25 million, he looks set to be a real asset to the side.
