Arteta happy with win but Saka out for two months

LONDON - Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Bukayo Saka is set to be sidelined for more than two months after an operation on his hamstring.

The Gunners began life without their talismanic forward on Dec 27, by beating Ipswich Town 1-0 at the Emirates to move into second place in the English Premier League and cut Liverpool's lead to six points.

The Reds travel to West Ham United on Dec 29.

Kai Havertz scored the only goal as Arsenal failed to turn their dominance into a more convincing scoreline.

The lack of a clinical scorer may ultimately cost them a first league title in more than 20 years, but they took advantage of Chelsea's shock 2-1 defeat by Fulham a day earlier to become Liverpool's closest challengers.
