After the match, Unai Emery gave updates on Holding and Ramsey’s injuries.
On Ramsey, the news was brighter. Reportedly he only suffered a “small” problem against Man United.
But Holding is now set to be a long term injury absentee for the Gunners. His knee problem was described as “big”.
Bad news for Rob Holding. Unai Emery confirms the defender could have a "big" knee injury. Prognosis on Aaron Ramsey appears to be a lot better. "Small injury," nothing serious. #AFC

Emery on injuries: "The worst news is the Rob Holding injury, the doctors think maybe it is a big injury but we are going to wait (to find out), it is his knee. Ramsey I think is a small injury but they showed us that afterwards every player responded with a good quality." #AFC
