However, Timber had to come off with 15 minutes to go, with youngster Miles Lewis-Skelly coming on instead. 

On Instagram Timber wrote: "Good to be back, we fought hard. A bit disappointed but we take the point." 

"I think we’ve done everything we could to accelerate that process," said boss Mikel Arteta post-game. 

"He (Timber) was so willing. The team and the medical staff have done a great job. We gave ourselves the chance to compete.  

“I don’t know the extent of the injury if there is one. The same with big Gabi. Continue to go."
