Gary Neville riles Arsenal fans again by brutally dismissing injury complaints

Gary Neville says that he "can't listen" to Arsenal fans complaining about their team's injury troubles as the Premier League title race heats up.

Star defender William Saliba 's absence has most recently dented the Gunners' title charge, with Arsenal failing to keep a clean sheet in the four games since he limped off during their Europa League last-16 defeat at home to Sporting Lisbon. Although Mikel Arteta 's side remain unbeaten, they've drawn their last two games and the absence of Saliba - who may not play again this season - is proving detrimental, especially since backup centre-back Takehiro Tomisayu is also out injured.

Having had striker Gabriel Jesus missing for four months earlier in the campaign and also seeing Oleksandr Zinchenko sidelined for periods, some Arsenal fans feel they've been particularly unfortunate with injuries. Neville, who's frequently annoyed Arsenal fans this season, isn't having any of it, feeling that Arteta and co don't have it worse than rivals Manchester City.
