Gunners to rest Henry

Arsene Wenger has revealed Thierry Henry will be left out of Arsenal’s squad for tomorrow’s FA Cup fourth-round tie at home to Middlesbrough.

Although Sylvain Wiltord has suffered an injury setback, Jeremie Aliadiere is still ruled out with a knee problem and Kanu is away on African Nations’ Cup duty, Henry will not even be on the bench.

Wenger will rely on Dennis Bergkamp, who returns from a five-game absence, while he must also decide whether to move Fredrik Ljungberg or Robert Pires forward, or turn to one of his youngsters.

Team (from): Lehmann, Stack, Toure, Lauren, Cole, Clichy, Campbell, Cygan, Keown, Vieira, Gilberto Silva, Edu, Parlour, Pires, Ljungberg, Bergkamp, Bentley, Owusu-Abeyie, Papadopulos, Smith.
