Wenger delivers update on Mkhitaryan injury, Arsenal fans react
Henrikh Mkhitaryan got a new lease of life when he made the move from Manchester United to Arsenal in the January transfer window.
The Armenian international was included in a straight swap that saw Alexis Sanchez move the other way to Old Trafford.
Since joining the North London outfit, Mkhitaryan has made 12 appearances in all competitions, including five starts in the Premier League.
In total, the winger has provided two goals and five assists, but last week he was struck down with a knee injury.
