Mikel Arteta was thrilled with the contribution of Jurrien Timber after the Arsenal defender starred in last night’s pre-season friendly win over Manchester United. Much was expected of the former Ajax captain when he joined the Gunners last season from Ajax. Timber, however, endured a nightmare season that was ruined by the cruciate knee ligament injury he suffered on the opening day of the Premier League season against Nottingham Forest. The Netherlands international made his comeback on the final day of the campaign and is now, finally, back to full fitness. #footballfanarena #ffa #arsenal #mikel #football
