It's hard not to feel a little sorry for Danny Welbeck.

Having missed a sizeable chunk of this season through injury, the Arsenal forward returned to action in February and would have almost certainly featured in Roy Hodgson's Euro 2016 plans. But on Sunday, Welbeck suffered another knee injury in Arsenal's 2-2 draw with Manchester City. After scans revealed cartilage damage severe enough to require surgery, he was ruled out for an estimated nine months. Welbeck sent the following tweet in light of the news. https://twitter.com/DannyWelbeck/status/730416590483824640 Before long, his former club Manchester United replied wishing him a speedy recovery. https://twitter.com/ManUtd/status/730418991873789952 Welbeck left United at the start of Louis Van Gaal's tenure, having been told by the Dutchman that he wouldn't be a regular starter for the club. A product of United's youth academy, Welbeck is still a popular figure amongst many United supporters despite opting to move to Arsenal. Click snap
