Arsenal fans react to performance of Kieran Tierney in Leicester draw
The ex-Celtic ace was instrumental as the Gunners earned a share of the spoils against Leicester City.
Arsenal were forced to settle for a draw at home to Leicester City as Jamie Vardy cancelled out a first-half Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang goal.
The 1-1 draw does little to help the Gunners in their quest for European football and Mikel Arteta will be left to rue the sending off of Eddie Nketiah.
Arsenal should have been out of sight by the time Vardy struck his 22nd goal of the campaign, missing a glut of chances to win at a canter.
It wasn’t to be though and the Gunners will not look for a response when they face fierce rivals Tottenham at the weekend.

Despite a missed opportunity to make up some ground on the teams above them, there were some positives for Arsenal.
Dani Ceballos was once again mesmerising, whilst Bukayo Saka continues to shine under Arteta.
One other player who came in for praise on social media was left-back Kieran Tierney.
The man signed for £25 million from Celtic in the summer has endured an injury-hit maiden campaign in the Premier League.
Since the return, however, he looks in great form and once again showed great determination down the left-hand side.
Following the draw with Leicester, we looked at what Arsenal fans were saying about the £75,000-a-week defender on Twitter.
Tierney is great.

Lacazette's inability to get across his man is infuriating. That ball in from Tierney was terrific
