Theo Walcott is the sole concern ahead of the North London
derby this weekend.
The England winger is not training at the moment after being laid
low with flu. Otherwise Arsenal have a clean bill of health before
the visit of Tottenham on Saturday lunchtime, a very different
situation to the many questions marks that were hanging over the
squad ahead of the Chelsea game last Sunday.
"The injury news is quite good compared to last week,"
Arsène Wenger told Arsenal TV Online on Thursday afternoon.
"The only one who is problematic is Theo Walcott. He is not
fit to practice. He has had flu and has not recovered completely.
Everybody else is available."
Therefore
Emmanuel Eboue is fit despite being stretchered off against
Avram Grant's side.
Arsenal TV Online subscribers will be able to see the full
pre-match interview on Friday. In it Wenger talks about Juande
Ramos' revolution at Spurs, fans' behaviour, the importance
of this derby, the performance at Blackburn, Eduardo's
finishing and Alex Song's defending, why Chelsea was the key
win of the season and William Gallas' goal.
