Armenian squad and Arsenal midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan returned for Arsenal U23 3-0 defeat against West Ham.

Mkhitaryan commented on the clash, Arsenal press service reported.

“After a while, I came back. I started playing with the under-23s and I'm very happy. I hope that I won't have any more injuries and I will keep playing,” he said adding “I'm thankful to everyone who has been working with me. To the medical staff, to the fitness coach and everyone, even to my team-mates. They were supporting me every day. It's life, everything is happening and you can get injured or something like that. I hope that no one gets injured any more and the team can be fully fit for the next games.”

According to him, Arsenal did very well during the match.

“Unfortunately, we didn't end up finishing the game. The game was called off but it was a great first half. I think we did very well. We could improve in some aspects but we scored three goals, were playing very good football and could've scored more,” Mkhitaryan said.

Arsenal vs Huddersfield Premier League match is scheduled for February 9.
