Former Arsenal and Manchester United defender Mikael Silvestre believes Kieran Tierney needs to be "patient" after the Scotland star has fallen down the pecking order at the Emirates Stadium.
Tierney made the £25million move from Celtic to the English Premier League giants in summer 2019 and immediately became a fans favourite after a number of impressive performances at left-back, which even lead to him being tipped as "captain material." However after a series of injuries coupled with the signing of Oleksandr Zinchenko and the versatility of Takehiro Tomiyasu, Tierney has played just 82 league minutes throughout October having mostly been used in the Europa League.
And speaking to bettingexpert, Silvestre reckons the 25-year-old will just have to use his positive mentality and attitude to carve out the opportunity to force his way back into boss Mikel Arteta's thinking. He said: "It’s true that the manager is using options that we wouldn’t guess at the beginning of the season.
