To say it's been a rather turbulent first season in north London for Portuguese defender Nuno Tavares is an understatement, who has experienced both highs and lows in an Arsenal shirt so far.
Acquired for a fee believed to be in the region of £7 million, Tavares was signed to provide left-back cover, tasked with coming into the team if Kieran Tierney was to sustain an injury or become unavailable for other reasons.
The 22-year-old delivered some strong performances earlier on in the season against the likes of Aston Villa, Leicester and Watford but since the turn of the new year, he has struggled when called into action.
