More misery has been piled on Arsenal following their 3-1 defeat at Manchester United. The Gunners look as though they've come away from Old Trafford with a fresh injury concern.
As reported by The Athletic's David Ornstein, Emile Smith Rowe appeared to pull up with an injury during Arsenal's post-match warm down. The midfielder came on as a late substitute in the defeat, replacing Martin Odegaard as part of a triple change made by Mikel Arteta with 16 minutes to play. Smith Rowe was one of three attacking changes made with Arsenal 2-1 down, but Marcus Rashford scored 60 seconds later to kill the game off.
Ornstein reported that Smith Rowe looked 'distressed' during the warm down and had to be taken back to the changing room by assistant coach Carlos Cuesta while the rest of the substitutes and players who didn't feature continued their drills.
The 22-year-old is yet to start a game for Arsenal this season. So far, he has played just 47 Premier League minutes in the Gunners' opening six matches, making substitute appearances against Leicester City, AFC Bournemouth, Aston Villa and the Red Devils. He featured in 33 of Arsenal's 38 league games last term.
If he is injured, Smith Rowe will join Mohamed Elneny, Reiss Nelson and Thomas Partey on the treatment table.
