Arseblog News says:

Hats off to Sami Mokbel who has broken another Arsenal injury story today, reporting that Kai Havertz suffered a hamstring ‘scare’ on the warm weather trip to Dubai. This comes after his reporting on Takehiro Tomiyasu potentially needing surgery to correct a knee issue which has kept him out of the squad for most of the season.

The prognosis is not yet known, and hopefully it’s nothing serious, but coming just days after Gabriel Martinelli was ruled out for at least a month due to a hamstring strain of his own, it’s hard not to worry.

It is absolutely negligent of the organization not to have brought in anyone. At this point we'll have to start Stina Blackstenius in the EPL 😑

Nah, surely we'll start Russo.

There's always Chloe Kelly as an option, she needs minutes

I hope that they worked on some striker-less formations in Dubai

Calafiori has played striker as a kid, he could do it too.

joke aside, heard a rumour via Twitter ITKs that we're considering Merino as an "auxiliary striker in case of emergencies". Pretty dire.
