Arsenal fans have taken to Twitter to react after the club tweeted an image of Kieran Tierney and Folarin Balogun in training.

What’s so special about the photo?

Well, the picture shows the two Gunners stars alongside each other in training yesterday, when the weather was below freezing at times.

In the image, Balogun can be seen wrapped up from head to toe. The teenager is wearing thermal leggings, gloves, a hat, a snood and a long-sleeve training top.

He simply couldn’t be more covered.
