Gunners missing several

Arsenal will be without several first-team regulars for tomorrow night’s FA Cup fifth-round replay at Blackburn.

Kolo Toure and Emmanuel Adebayor are both suspended after their red cards in the Carling Cup final, while captain Thierry Henry (foot), Tomas Rosicky (groin) and Abou Diaby (ankle) will not feature.

Cesc Fabregas is also set to be rested, with full-back Gael Clichy (foot), Justin Hoyte (hamstring), Mathieu Flamini (foot) and Johan Djourou (ankle) are all concerns.

Manager Arsene Wenger told the club’s official website, www.arsenal.com: “We have lots of injuries. There are plenty of changes, but it will still be a strong team.

“William Gallas is coming back, so are [Alexander] Hleb and [Freddie] Ljungberg. They will be involved. Denilson will be there as well.”

Team (from): Almunia, Eboue, Gallas, Senderos, Traore, Ljungberg, Denilson, Gilberto, Hleb, Baptista, Aliadiere, Poom, Walcott, Djourou, Flamini, Clichy, Hoyte, Randall, Connolly.
