Injury problems for Allardyce

Bolton boss Sam Allardyce faces an injury crisis ahead of his side's clash with Arsenal at Highbury.

Allardyce is without Paul Warhurst, Bruno N'Gotty and Bernard Mendy.

Ricardo Gardner is also out for up to six weeks following knee surgery on Tuesday.

Anthony Barness (hamstring), Simon Charlton and Kevin Nolan (both knee) are also doubtful.

However, Michael Ricketts is set to return after recovering from a knee injury.
