Fabregas missing for Gunners' FA Cup tie

Arsenal will be without captain Cesc Fabregas for tomorrow’s FA Cup quarter-final at Manchester United after the Spain midfielder aggravated his hamstring problem in the midweek Champions League defeat to Barcelona.

Robin van Persie is set to skipper the side having made a swifter than expected return from a knee injury to play at the Nou Camp, but goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny (hand) is out.
