Arsenal suffer another injury blow with news that Aaron Ramsey is ruled out of action for a month

Gunners midfielder was substituted after 60 minutes in defeat to Liverpool and joins growing list of players on treatment table

ARSENAL have been rocked with the news that midfielder Aaron Ramsey will be ruled out of action for a month.

The Welshman hobbled off after 60 minutes clutching his hamstring in the humiliating 4-3 defeat to Liverpool on Sunday.

Ramsey will now definitely miss next weekend's clash against Premier League champions Leicester, the derby clash against Watford and is a doubt for the league match against Southampton after the international break on September 10.

The injury puts further pressure on boss Arsene Wenger who was targeted by a chorus of boos following the loss to Jurgen Klopp's men.

Ramsey is just the latest player to appear on the physio table with Per Mertesacker, Danny Welbeck, Gabriel Paulista and Alex Iwobi all facing a spell on the sidelines.

Wenger is still left with plenty of midfield replacements with Francis Coquelin, Mohamed Elneny and Jack Wilshere all ready to step up and fill the void left by Ramsey.

Gunners fans are losing patience with Wenger and his lack of transfer activity this summer after seeing their league rivals splash the cash in order to fight for a serious title challenge.

They lined up with inexperienced duo Rob Holding and Calum Chambers as their main central defenders before shipping four goals in 17 minutes as Liverpool ran riot at the Emirates.

However they could be welcoming Valencia's Shkodran Mustafi to the club with the defender close to sealing his move to London in a £25million deal.
