SEVEN players on Arsenal’s latest injury list ahead of Sunderland match

Arsenal’s Injury List Grows by AH

The inevitable has happened once again and Arsenal has been weakened by the lack of fitness of our players as they prepare for the new season. But with the meaningless international friendlies lined up for this week we can hopefully take into account that Arsene Wenger may have exaggerated a couple of them to get them out of international duty ahead of the opening game against Sunderland.

Here is the full list with expected return times:

Mikel Arteta has a small knock, the length of the injury is not yet known but a date is expected soon.

French Defender Laurent Koscielny has a calf injury, but the seriousness of the injury is yet to be announced. He has been withdrawn from the France squad.

Teenage superstar Alex Oxlade Chamberlain has sustained an ankle/foot injury but the length he will be out for, has not yet been announced. The Englishman had to pull out of the England National Team due to the injury.

Tomas Rosicky has a calf muscle strain, his return date has been revealed and he is expected back in 2 months.

Jack Wilshere still has a recurring foot injury, which ruled him out of the entire 2011/2012 season. The Englishman is finally expected back in 3 months.

Emmanuel Frimpong has a knee injury, which he sustained during his loan at Wolves last season and he is expected back in 2 months.

Bacary Sagna is still out with a broken leg, he expected back in 3 weeks. This is a much earlier return than first expected.

At least the injury list is not as long as it usually is, and luckily our best players are set to only be out for the first few weeks of the new season.
