Kieran Tierney got his shirt torn to bits for Arsenal - but the Celtic hero insists he'll do anything to help out manager Mikel Arteta.
The former Parkhead left-back has had a frustrating season so far, having only started three Premier League matches, limited to mainly sub appearances and Europa League outings. He scored the winner in last night's 1-0 win over FC Zurich, a lovely half-volley which came in a match where an opposing player literally ripped part of his shirt off.
When asked about his season so far and perhaps some of its frustration, the defender who Celtic sold to Arsenal in 2019 stated that he will aid his club whenever he is needed, even after a bang on the ankle left him swollen. He told BT Sport: "I want to play every single chance I can get but I am just going to keep working hard. The manager knows that I will give 100%.

"That's whether I am starting or not. I will support the team from the bench and if I need to come on or I start, I'll give everything.
"I'm all good. I have no problems, I took a sore one on the ankle but it's fine. We wanted to get the game done by 60 or 70 minutes, score a couple of goals.
"We never done that. I thought we saw the game out well. They put a lot of pressure on us but we dealt with it quite good."
