Wenger packs midfield in Moscow clash

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has opted for a five-man midfield in tonight’s Champions League Group G clash at CSKA Moscow.

Attack-minded Robin van Persie lined up just behind frontman Thierry Henry, with Theo Walcott dropping to the bench, and Alexander Hleb returned to the starting XI following Saturday’s 3-0 Barclays Premiership win over Watford.
