Bukayo Saka and Takehiro Tomiyasu give Arsenal injury boost after scares in West Ham win

Bukayo Saka and Takehiro Tomiyasu both gave Arsenal injury scares in the win over West Ham on Sunday, with both having to be substituted after stoppages in play. Despite the pair going off, the Gunners still emerged victorious.

Goals from Rob Holding and Gabriel from set-pieces either side of Jarrod Bowen's strike meant that the game ended 2-1 in a tense affair at the London Stadium. The victory pushed Mikel Arteta's men back into fourth, leapfrogging North London rivals Tottenham, who had won earlier in the day.

However, with four huge games left in the season, there will be some concern over the fitness of Tomiyasu and Saka. An encouraging sign for Arteta will be that neither had to be forced back inside for treatment, with both going straight back to the bench to sit down.
