Henry doubt for Gunners

Arsenal have doubts over captain Thierry Henry (foot) and Robin van Persie (hip) ahead of the trip to Manchester United on Sunday.

Defender Kolo Toure is, though, expected to play despite hobbling off against Hamburg in the Champions League on Wednesday night with a hip injury.

Goal-scoring midfielder Tomas Rosicky is pressing to keep his place in the starting XI, although Freddie Ljungberg was rested in midweek and could return.

Philippe Senderos (shoulder), Gael Clichy (foot), Lauren (knee) and Abou Diaby (ankle) are all around four to six weeks away from a return.

Provisional Squad: Lehmann, Eboue, Toure, Hoyte, Djourou, Gallas, Hleb, Baptista, Fabregas, Gilberto, Rosicky, Van Persie, Flamini, Adebayor, Almunia, Ljungberg, Song, Walcott, Henry.
