Midfield posers for Wenger

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger faces a selection crisis in midfield as he prepares his Barclays Premier League leaders for tomorrow’s visit of struggling Wigan.

The Gunners were already without the suspended Cesc Fabregas and the international break has not been kind with Alex Hleb (hamstring), Mathieu Flamini (thigh) and Abou Diaby (back) struggling, while experienced Brazilian Gilberto faces a long return trip from South America.
