Heavily Congested Schedule Makes Injuries ‘an Accident Waiting To Happen’: Arteta
UEFA Champions League: Arsenal were struck with disaster during their training camp in Dubai with their lone available striker Kai Havertz having torn his hamstring. The German forward has been ruled out of the season, further reducing the options left available for Arsenal’s frontline.
Head coach Mikel Arteta believes the heavily congested schedule have made injuries ‘inevitable’ as the side prepares for the run-in till the March international break.
"With the loads and minutes, it's inevitable, It's an accident waiting to happen. This season it's the accumulation of that, the stress. Is it luck? Certainly the schedule is demanding, and for explosive players it becomes an issue,” said Arteta in a press conference.
