Arsenal boss Wenger fumes at Standard Liege No22

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger was furious over Kieran Gibbs' metatarsal injury suffered against Standard Liege last night.

Gibbs suffered a fractured metatarsal in his left foot after a lunge by Standard Liege's Eliaquim Mangala.

It came just eight days after he hurt his right foot playing for England Under-21s.

It leaves Arsenal without a recognised left-back as Gael Clichy is still three weeks away after a back injury.

Wenger snapped: "Gibbs is much more serious. He has a big hole in his leg.

"It was a very bad challenge from the No 22 and it was not his first try. Unfortunately he doesn't look too good. The vibes from the medical team were not very positive."
