# Arsenal: Fans praise Kieran Tierney after performance against Standard Liege

**Arsenal fans have been praising Kieran Tierney after his performance in the 4-0 win over Standard Liege last night.**

\[freshpress-poll id=”250124″\]

The Scotsman made his second start for the club as he returns from a double hernia problem which he had surgery on in the summer [(via The Sun)](https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/4298515/kieran-tierney-celtic-hospital-pose/).

Tierney was in impressive form last night, creating the most chances of any player on the pitch as he assisted Gabriel Martinelli for the opening goal of the game [(via Squawka)](https://twitter.com/Squawka/status/1179848106772484096).

The Scotland international also won 100% of his aerial duels and three out of the four tackles he attempted in the game [(via WhoScored)](https://www.whoscored.com/Matches/1427274/Live/Europe-UEFA-Europa-League-2019-2020-Arsenal-Standard-Liege).

Tierney joined the north London giants from Scottish champions Celtic in the summer for a fee believed to be £25m [(via BBC)](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49275919).

Gooners have taken to their signing after his brilliant performance in their Europa League game as they took to Twitter to praise Tierney.

Here is a selection of tweets from the north London faithful:
