Hector Bellerin has opened on what it's like to be stuck on the sidelines with injury in a newly-released video from the summer.
The full-back endured a difficult time as he looked to build up his fitness following a cruciate ligament injury which ruled him out for much of last season.
Of course the Spaniard is back in action now, but spending such a long time in the medical room clearly took its toll on the defender.
Bellerin was part of the squad during the pre-season campaign, but spoke in detail about the struggles that recovering from a long-term injury can have.
Speaking in his Vlog during his recovery over the summer , he said: "The one thing you miss the most is the hotel life, being with the boys, the chats and just being involved in that routine.
"Like in half an hour I have to go to that meeting to learn about the other team and then you eat with the whole team and have time to rest or time for yourself which is really useful for me because I like to read a lot in those times.
"It's been nice to be involved with it."
