Arsenal fans excited to see Kieran Tierney against Southampton

Arsenal fans are excited to hopefully see Kieran Tierney in action against Southampton this weekend.

It was confirmed that Sead Kolasinac would miss the game through injury, leaving Unai Emery with a decision to make at left-back.

Tierney has been recovering from a hip injury and sat out of Scotland’s most recent Euro 2020 qualifiers, but these fans on social media want to see him start on Saturday.

This could be the moment that Tierney’s time at Arsenal really kicks off.

He has endured a stop-start career with the Gunners so far after reoccurring fitness issues.

Tierney hasn’t featured in the Premier League since the draw against Wolves, but he’ll now be hoping to improve upon his two domestic appearances with a good showing against Southampton.

With Kolasinac out of the picture, this could be the time for him to really nail down a starting spot at Arsenal.
