Mikel Arteta has expressed concern over the injuries to Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice following Arsenal’s 1-1 draw with Chelsea on Sunday.

The Gunners were forced to settle for a point at Stamford Bridge, with Gabriel Martinelli’s excellent strike canceled out by Pedro Neto, who equalized shortly after the hour mark. Leandro Trossard had a chance to secure all three points for Arsenal in the dying seconds, but his shot went wide.

However, the result wasnโ€™t the only issue for Arteta, as both Saka and Rice were forced to leave the pitch early. Saka limped off after a clash with Marc Cucurella, while Rice was substituted for Mikel Merino after appearing to suffer a foot injury.

“They [Saka and Rice] donโ€™t look very good,” Arteta said after the match. “I donโ€™t know [if it’s long-term]. They both couldnโ€™t finish the game, so itโ€™s not good.”

The Arsenal manager also admitted his frustration with the result, adding, “The disappointment of not getting three points is bigger [than being satisfied], and it will probably be bigger after watching it back. I think we dominated them, we were the better team in many phases, and after going ahead, Iโ€™m very disappointed in the way we conceded. It was so poor. Itโ€™s not our standards, and we donโ€™t accept that.”

Arsenal will next face Nottingham Forest on November 23, following the international break.
