Mikel Arteta is "concerned" by the injury problems that continue to hamper Emile Smith Rowe's season.
The midfielder has only made four substitute appearances this term with no starts yet coming his way after a pre-season that was interupted by injury setbacks. Smith Rowe looked to have aggravated his fitness woes when warming down after the defeat at Manchester United earlier this month.
It has left Arteta, once again, bemoaning his player's problems which has meant he's been unable to put his all into training. Now it looks as if the Arsenal academy graduate may have to undergo surgery if he is to finally rid of the issue.
