After spending the entire season on the sidelines, Arsenal’s injury prone French International midfielder Abou Diaby finally managed to step out on the pitch to play for the first team. There were loud cheering for every single touch Diaby made, such was the relief to see him play in an Arsenal shirt once again. Should he stay fit for next season, Diaby could prove to be a valuable squad player.
Here are some of the Tweets from Arsenal fans, who took to Twitter to express their joy:
World Class. This is why he waited. #Diaby https://t.co/RCR04bWbDZ
