Arsenal will be without Alexandre Lacazette once again for the trip to Manchester United on Monday after the club confirmed the Frenchman is yet to recover from an ankle problem.
The striker suffered the injury against rivals Tottenham earlier this month and has missed the Gunners’ last four fixtures as a result.
Lacazette, who has been tipped by many to become one of Unai Emery’s ‘five captains’ in the newly formed leadership group, is set to return to action next month.
And these Arsenal fans were quick to react to the news on social media, with many sharing their disappointment over the latest Lacazette update.

Some fans did have a slight hope that the 28-year-old would be able to take a place on the bench on Old Trafford, however, the game has, unfortunately, came too soon.
Unai Emery won’t be short of firepower upfront however and will be relying on the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Nicolas Pepe to give Arsenal a first victory at Old Trafford in the Premier League for 13 years.
