"I Miss Him Everyday..." – Jurrien Timber Reveals the ONE Arsenal Player Everyone is Missing

 

Arsenal’s defensive line has faced a significant blow with the news of Gabriel Magalhães’ long-term injury, a situation that has profoundly impacted his teammates, including Jurrien Timber. The Brazilian central defender has been an integral part of Arsenal’s backline since his arrival, showcasing his impressive skills and leadership qualities. Timber, who joined the Gunners in the summer transfer window, has quickly formed a bond with Gabriel both on and off the pitch.  

In recent interviews, Timber expressed his sentiments regarding Gabriel’s absence:  

> **"I miss Him everyday, it’s now that He’s out that we know that He’s the pillar of this Arsenal team. Without Him, the squad is useless. If He were here against PSG, we could have won comfortably."**  

Timber described Gabriel not only as a teammate but also as a close friend, emphasizing the strong rapport that developed between them during training sessions and matches. He acknowledged the void left in the squad, highlighting Gabriel’s influential presence in the dressing room and his critical role in promoting team unity.  

Timber’s admiration for Gabriel’s abilities is evident. The Brazilian’s **tactical awareness, strength in aerial duels, and composure under pressure** have made him a stalwart in Arsenal’s defense. Without him, Timber feels an increased responsibility to step up and fill the gap, both in terms of defensive duties and leadership.  

The partnership between Timber and Gabriel had the potential to become one of the Premier League’s most formidable defensive duos. With Gabriel sidelined, Timber now hopes to forge new partnerships with other defenders while maintaining the team’s defensive stability.  

 

Support from fans has poured in for Gabriel during this difficult time, and Timber echoed these sentiments, urging supporters to rally around their injured teammate. He believes that the support can help Gabriel recover faster and return stronger to the pitch.  

As Arsenal pushes through this period, Timber’s dedication to both his game and his teammate will be crucial. He understands the importance of resilience and unity in the face of adversity, aiming to ensure that the team remains competitive in Gabriel’s absence.
