Walters doubtful for Stoke

Jon Walters is Stoke manager Tony Pulis’ only doubt ahead of his side's Premier League match with Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium tomorrow.

Walters missed training in the first half of the week with flu, and only took part in gym work yesterday to assess his fitness, with a late decision to be made on whether he will travel.

If passed fit he is certain to figure in some capacity for a Stoke side looking to atone for last Saturday’s disappointing 1-0 home defeat to Blackpool.

Provisional squad: Begovic, Huth, Faye, Shawcross, Collins, Wilson, Etherington, Pennant, Whelan, Whitehead, Walters, Fuller, Jones, Gudjohnsen, Wilkinson, Higginbotham, Tuncay, Delap, Diao, Sorensen.
