Arsenal are still nursing a string of injuries for the visit of Reading on Saturday with Thierry Henry and Tomas Rosicky both set to miss out. According to Arsenal’s official site the casualty list for the weekend includes Henry, Rosicky, Diaby, Justin Hoyte, Mathieu Flamini and Robin van Persie. The Gunners will of course also be without Adebayor, Eboue, Toure through suspension.
Fabregas will return after being rested in the Cup replay defeat, while Djourou will return from injury. Clichy is also likely to start at left-back.
Henry’s absence means I’ll need to update my Scout picks and shorlists. I’ll get that done later tonight along with a full list of team news for this weekend’s games.
