The injury crisis at Arsenal continues, as centre-back Laurent Koscielny left Sunday's Premier League match at Norwich City with an apparent hip injury.

Koscielny, 30, collapsed to his knees in the opening minutes, clutching at his right hip and lower back as he received treatment on the pitch from club medic/household name Colin Lewin.

The French international limped off the pitch in noticeable pain before being replaced by Brazilian defender Gabriel.

As one returns, another heads to the treatment table, with Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain's return to first-team football marred by the loss of team leader Koscielny.
