From the source
Arsenal got the win in Prague, but the main talking point afterwards was Ezri Konsa. The defender started alongside Gabriel, then came off just after the hour after appearing uncomfortable during the game.
Mikel Arteta made it clear this was not tactical. “He’s played so many games in the last few weeks. He had some issues and we decided to take him off.”
Konsa had already looked troubled in the first half when he was seen feeling his knee. He carried on after the break, picked up a booking early in the second half, then was replaced on 60 minutes.
