Arsenal’s Czech midfielder Tomas Rosicky has returned to training after spending no less than 16 months struggling with knee and hamstring injuries. The player admitted to being nervous.
“I was a bit nervous I have to say. When you have been out for so long you don’t know what to expect. I did not know if I would still have the same sense of the game, the same understanding, as I had before. But it was great and I did everything with the team,” Rosicky said on Arsenal’s official website.
“It has been a tough time for the medical staff and for me. I thank them but I hope I don’t have to go to the medical room again!
“Of course I still have a lot of work to do before I will be 100 per cent. I think I will not have a holiday like the other players over the summer.”
The 28-year-old played his last match for Arsenal in January last year.
