SAK BACK FOR A CRACK

Gunners hotshot returns to boost title push

- JOHN CROSS

AS THE old saying goes, do you want the good news or the bad news? First, the good news was that Bukayo Saka made a dream return as he scored in his first appearance after a three-month injury lay-off.

But the really bad news was that Arsenal defender Gabriel limped off with a hamstring injury which will surely rule him out of both legs of the Champions League quarter-final with Real Madrid.

It almost feels typical of the Gunners' season that just when they get one big player back, another gets sidelined.

And there are few worse players to be missing than Gabriel when Arsenal have to face Kylian Mbappe and Co at the Emirates next week.
