Mikel Arteta raves about Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney

Mikel Arteta has showered heaps of praise on Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney after the Gunners secured a comfortable victory against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday.

Arsenal won 4-0 against the Baggies on Saturday at the Hawthorns and in the process secured their third victory in a row in the Premier League.

Tierney, who joined from Celtic in 2019, scored the opening goal of the match with a superb solo effort. Arteta has suggested after the match that the 23-year-old can become a future captain for the club, describing the defender as a “natural leader”.
