Arsenal's Jurrien Timber during the Premier League match at Ashburton Grove, London, September 28, 2024

ARSENAL defender Jurrien Timber said he is in total agreement with Rodri, following the Manchester City star’s strike warning, and described the current fixture congestion as “dangerous.”

The Netherlands international, 23, who spent nine months out last season with a knee injury, also revealed the increased number of matches is a “big topic” in the Arsenal dressing room.

The Gunners are back in action on Tuesday, hosting Paris St Germain in the revamped Champions League group stage which has increased from six matches to eight this season.
