Arsenal hit by injuries ahead of Porto trip


By Chris Harris

Arsenal must negotiate a tough Champions League trip to Porto without a number of first-team regulars.

Andrey Arshavin and Alex Song picked up injuries during last week's win over Liverpool and they have not recovered in time for the first leg against the Portuguese champions. What's more, they have been joined on the sidelines by William Gallas and Manuel Alumnia. Meanwhile Eduardo, tipped for a return on Wednesday night, is still unavailable.

Arsène Wenger ran through his list of walking wounded before his 18-man squad boarded their flight to Portugal on Tuesday afternoon.

"William Gallas has a calf injury.Alex Song has a knee injury.Andrey Arshavin has a hamstring injury," said Wenger.

"Manuel Alumnia has a finger injury, and the hand is quite useful for goalkeepers. He had already a twisted finger and he made it worse and I didn't want to take a gamble on it. Eduardo has a recurrence of his hamstring injury."

Long-term absentees Robin Van Persie,Kieran Gibbs and Johan Djourou are also absent but Carlos Vela returns from a knee injury.
Arsenal squad:

Lukasz Fabianski
Vito Mannone
Nicklas Bendtner
Carlos Vela
Theo Walcott
Samir Nasri
Denilson
Aaron Ramsey
Tomas Rosicky
Abou Diaby
Cesc Fabregas
Gael Clichy
Thomas Vermaelen
Emmanuel Eboue
Mikael Silvestre
Sol Campbell
Armand Traore
Bacary Sagna

Duh hii kali utadhani tunacheza FA Cup au Carling Cup. Kumbukeni hawa Porto walishawahi kuwa Machampion wakati wa Mourinho, hii timu si kama Stoke au Wolverhampton ama Portsmouth kwamba ni vibonde.Na imani Wenger ameanza kuona umuhimu wa kuwa na wachezaji wawili wawili wazoefu kwa kila namba. Kilichobaki hapo j'tano ni dua na maombi.
 
Naona Vito Mannone atakuwa golini, ipo kazi lakini Porto watakunywa tu.
 
hapo william gallas ndio pengo kubwa ,almunia kusema kweli snaamu tu pale golini i hope fabianski atatumia nafasi yake vizuri.

sasa sol campmbell mtihani mzito na porto pale kwao walivyokuwa wazuri i will take a draw,a win will be a bonus.campbell ndio chance yake kuonesha huwezo wake hili apate soko summer.
 

Tutawapiga magoli pale pale kwao tena ndio vizuri hawa makipa wengine wa-shine pamoja na wachezaji wengine. Come on Gunners!

Binafsi kukosekana kwa Arshavin hakunisumbui,tatizo lipo kwa Song,ni injini ya timu huu ushahidi ni pale alipoenda Angola for AFCON,pengo lake lilionekana dhahiri...Denilson naye tangu arudi kwenye majeruhi hayupo fit kabisa,sijui itakuwaje aisee

Song ni nondo pale midfield nakubali mkuu.Arshavin najua anacheza chini ya kiwango lakini yule jamaa ni mgumu sana na huwa anasaidia kuhold mpira mbele na pengo lake tutaliona kwani bendtner bado hajarudisha confidence yake kabisa toka harudi.kwahio kesho tatizo kubwa litakuwa katika kuhold mpira mbele kama vipi wenger awaambie jamaa watumie long range kwa vile nina huakika tutaenda kuwa more defensive kesho.
 

AW ...Tuko wote hapo! nakumbuka walishatubamizaga kimoja last time......wale vijana ni wabishi sana pale kwao......!

itakuwa vizuri zaidi kwa sasa fabianski na mannone wote ni wazuri zaidi ya almunia.

...Fabianski set pieces zinamsumbua, namfagilia Mannone japo ni 3rd choice kwenye pecking order ya Wenger

Mapengo ya majeruhi yatazibwa vizuri tu wala msiwe na wasiwasi...
Kasheshe ingekuwa EPL bana,...lakini Europe hakuna shaka!

mannone mkuu dogo yule kiboko.nimezungumzia fabianski kwa vile naona ndio choice ya Wenger.

mapengo yatazibwa vizuri tatizo timu yetu pale mbele tunalemba sana.bora eboue nae aanze pale midfield manake ana dribble vizuri na ana attacking mind japo kuwa final decision zake ni mbovu,bila kusahau ana nguvu na mkabaji.
 
game ya leo ni tricky kidogo kwa arsenal....potential banana skin.....oops!

duuh mkuu mie bahati mbaya nitakuwa kazini wakati wa game kwahio usione kama nimekimbia,nitajitahidi kuwepo lakini.
 
Hili game natabiri litaisha 1-1 kama Sol akicheza vizuri. Sol ndio weakest link kwenye ulinzi kwa pace na wareno watamsumbua sana.
