Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has named his squad for the Gunners tour of Asia, and the Frenchman has left behind goalkeeper Manuel Almunia and striker Nicklas Bendtner fuelling speculation the pair will leave the club this summer.

As announced yesterday, captain Cesc Fabregas picked up a very convenient hamstring injury and has remained in London to ‘undergo treatment’, also known as ‘push through his transfer to Barcelona’. Emmanuel Eboue also misses out with an injury, although Samir Nasri does make the trip despite his current contract dispute and Japanese starlet Ryo Miyaichi is also included.

The full squad which is due to leave tomorrow:

Wojciech Szczesny
Vito Mannone
Sebastien Squillaci
Johan Djourou
Kieran Gibbs
Carl Jenkinson
Laurent Koscielny
Armand Traore
Thomas Vermaelen
Bacary Sagna
Alex Song
Jack Wilshere
Tomas Rosicky
Denilson
Aaron Ramsey
Emmanuel Frimpong
Samir Nasri
Ryo Miyaichi
Carlos Vela
Robin van Persie
Marouane Chamakh
Andrey Arshavin
Theo Walcott

What is the point in taking denilson. This only only means that he is now going to stay. After what he said in the press there is no way any arsenal fan will accept him being on the bench let alone the team. Its a joke.

Looking at the squad’s name, I have a gut feeling we would finish 6/7 next season… Get Samba or Cahill and where the hell is Gervinho?? has he signed or not…

Wenger should not loose focus on the transfer actions as he travels to Asia. We need some experienced players to turn our fortunes round.

I cannot believe that we have so many injuries already, usual suspects Diaby and Fabregas do not suprise me, but Fabianski is alittle worrying and Eboue.
Where the hell is Kyle Bartley and Henri Lansbury? Surely Lansbury should be going ahead of Denilson?

I expected Gavinho and Lansbury on that list, Wenger work harder and bring in at least Cahill and samba. JUAN MATA would also be a good addition. Let Cesc go

I just dont understand what’s the matter with wenger. For god sake he has been doing same thing for the last six years without any result. A normal person will have to change style to gain result. That man’s head need 2 be closely examined
