Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is delighted with the progress Jurrien Timber is making in his injury recovery.
Timber arrived in the summer from Ajax.
The Holland defender is working his way back from an ACL injury suffered on the opening day of the season.
"Obviously he's going through a really significant injury but he's flying to be fair, the stage he is right now," Arteta said.
"The way he works every single day is incredibly satisfying to watch but unfortunately we're going to miss him still for a long time."
