Kieran Tierney has declared himself fully fit and available for Arsenal.

Ahead of tonight's Premier League opener at Crystal Palace, the left-back says he's recovered from his summer knee injury.

He told the Daily Mail: "I'm ready. I'm good to go. I went to a training camp in Marbella in the summer and worked there for 10 days to get fit, me and the sports scientists and physios and a few others.

"In a sad way, I know my way around an injury now. But it definitely doesn't get any easier."

On competition with new teammate Oleks Zinchenko, he added: "At a club like Arsenal, you need competition. For where we want to go, you need at least two players for each position. He is a great signing.

"Genuinely, I love it. I love being up against it. I'm coming back from injury. I know I'll need to work my way back. But I'm ready."
