Gunners relieved as Walcott set to be fit for Olympiakos

FRESH from their much-needed win over Bolton on Saturday, Arsenal were further boosted yesterday after it emerged that the injury that forced Theo Walcott to hobble off in the dying minutes of the game is not as serious as first feared.

Walcott may even be fit to feature in Wednesday’s Champions League match against Olympiakos.

Arsenal confirmed that Walcott’s problem is only “minor” and he should be available for an important week, which features the Olympiakos tie and next Sunday’s derby at Tottenham Hotspur.
