Arsenal fans love what Kieran Tierney did to Shkodran Mustafi in training before Watford clash

Kieran Tierney has returned to full training ahead of Arsenal's Premier League clash against Watford.

The Scotland international joined Arsenal from Celtic in the transfer window for £25m, but is yet to play a minute for the Gunners after undergoing a double hernia operation during the summer.

But fans could soon get a glimpse of the left-back as he build up his fitness in training ahead of a league debut for the north London side.

Arsenal posted a video of the 22-year-old taking part in a training drill ahead of Sunday's trip to Vicarage Road, and fans spotted the defender nutmegging fellow defender Shkodran Mustafi during a Rondo.

One supporter posted the video with the caption: 'Kieran Tierney casually megging Mustafi on his first Arsenal training session. Safe to say he’ll be a fan favourite if he keeps that behaviour up!'

Mustafi is not the most popular player among Arsenal fans after a number of high profile mistakes that lead to goals last season, with many hoping that the defender would move on during the summer.

However, the German international remains at the Emirates Stadium, at least until January.

He is yet to make an appearance in an Arsenal shirt this season and the deadline day signing of David Luiz has pushed the 27-year-old even further down the pecking order, although he has been included in the 20-man Premier League squad.
