Arsenal boss Unai Emery: Buy a Bellerin replacement?

Arsenal boss Unai Emery insists they do not need to buy a new fullback after Hector Bellerin's knee injury.

Bellerin sustained a knee injury in 69th minute of the 2-0 win against Chelsea.

And Emery was asked if he will buy a new fullback this month: "We have Ainsley (Maitland-Niles). He is playing with good pieces, today also he played well I think. He can help us by playing like a right back or a right winger.

"And also, Lichtsteiner is another player for playing there and I think we have players. I don't forget Jenkinson because he is with us, he played some matches and if we need [him], he is okay to help us."
