Kieran Tierney sends message to Arsenal fans after stunning performance against Standard Liege

It was another game and another early sign of what Kieran Tierney can do.

The full-back is still building up his fitness after a frustrating summer saw him miss pre-season and the start of the campaign through injury.

But with another 90 minutes under his belt, it won't be long until we're able to see Tierney week in, week out.

Tierney made his first start for the club in the 5-0 Carabao Cup victory over Nottingham Forest, but missed out on the trip to Old Trafford where Arsenal drew 1-1 with Manchester United.

However after featuring from the start in the 4-0 victory over Standard Liege in the Europa League, Tierney seems to be feeling good about his return.

Taking to social media after the game, he said: "Great night! Thanks again for all your support."

One man who is particularly pleased with the progress of Kieran Tierney is Arsenal head coach, Unai Emery.

Speaking after the game with Standard Liege, he said: "Kieran after his injury is coming back with a good attitude.

"He played 80 minutes last week against Nottingham Forest with a good performance, tonight also I think we are a better competitive team with him and Sead Kolasinac in that left-back [position].

"Really we are happy with him."
