Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta says adapting to Bukayo Saka's absence with injury can transform him into a better manager. Saka - who has five goals and 10 assists so far this season - faces "many weeks" on the sidelines after tearing his hamstring in Arsenal's 5-1 win at Crystal Palace last weekend.

Arsenal is looking at multiple weeks without Bukayo Saka after the England star picked up a supposed hamstring injury against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.

Bukayo Saka faces “many weeks” on the sidelines after suffering a torn hamstring, while his Arsenal team-mate Raheem Sterling will also be unavailable for a similar period. Saka, 23, was forced off during the first half of Arsenal’s 5-1 win over Crystal Palace on Saturday with an injury to his right leg.

Arsenal forward Bukayo Saka will be out for "many weeks" after suffering a hamstring injury during Saturday's 5-1 Premier League win at Crystal Palace, manager Mikel Arteta said.

Who will step up in the wake of Bukayo Saka's long term injury? Looking at three potential options for Mikel Arteta.

There is no disguising the fact that Bukayo Saka would be one of the first names on a list of players we wouldn’t want to be injured. Every team has a core group of talent so good that they can’t be replaced.

Bukayo Saka and Raheem Sterling are among four Arsenal players Mikel Arteta will be without for the clash against Ipswich
