​Bellerin admits Arsenal missed Tierney in Crystal Palace draw | OneFootball

Arsenal right-back Hector Bellerin admits the team missed his fellow fullback Kieran Tierney against Crystal Palace.

The Scotland star has been in excellent form at left back this season, emerging as one of the team's key attacking threats.

However, he was absent from the team for their 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace on Thursday, and Bellerin admits the team struggled to create without Tierney.

Bellerin told reporters post-game: "Yeah I think so [we missed Tierney].

"We do miss every single player when they're not on the pitch.

"We also have great players coming back and I think Ainsley did a great job again, filling in, such a versatile player.

"But it's also true that Kieran was enjoying a great run of form and we did miss him, probably, on the left side.

"But we have many talented players in many areas that can come in and we're not a team that boil down to just one player.

"We need to find ways to be creative, to break down other teams, whatever challenge they give us, and we need to keep improving on that."
