CHRIS SUTTON MEETS KIERAN TIERNEY: Arsenal star explains why Jesus is an amazing signing, insists the Gunners can get in the Champions League AND win a trophy… and reveals he'll relish the competition at left-back with Zinchenko

This interview was originally scheduled for April 7 but they say if you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans.

Kieran Tierney had big plans, too. He wanted to help Arsenal to a top-four finish in the Premier League. He wanted to take Scotland to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. But on the eve of our original meeting, some pain in Tierney's left knee led to a scan which led to surgery which led to three months on the sidelines.

It was a difficult time for this likeable 25-year-old.
