Even when things are going well for Arsenal which, despite the #WengerOut tweets still doing the rounds, they’re; the Gunners are well on course for a second place finish in the Premier League and a FA Cup Final title which isn’t a bad season for anyone. However, you always feel that Arsene Wenger’s side are never too far away from total capitulation whether that be down to their defending, over reliance on certain players or, in this case, injuries.

Mathieu Debuchy joining Arsenal was seen as a sensible bit of business for Le Professeur in replacing one of the best right-backs in the league when Bacary Sagna went off to join Manchester City’s bench, however, the Frenchman has spent a couple of lengthy spells on the sidelines.

In fact, the former Newcastle United man is looking at another spell in the treatment room after Wenger revealed the player has suffered a hamstring strain.

Although the news will be gutting for the Gooners, it does look like they’ve got a huge talent in the making in Hector Bellerin.

Naturally, though, the Arsenal faithful took to Twitter over Debuchy’s latest setback:

Fewest minutes played: Podolski 130 mins, Walcott 333, Arteta 469, Rosicky 533, Wilshere 541, Debuchy 848. #afc

Oh. Mathieu Debuchy. He can't catch a break. Hope the hamstring is nothing serious.
