Arsenal could be set to lose winger Theo Walcott for far longer than first expected after The Times has reported this morning that he will now be ruled out for six weeks.
England manager Fabio Capello announced after the game that the injury was not thought to be serious and initial reports claimed Walcott would only miss two weeks. But now fresh reports claim that x-rays found ligament damage meaning he will now miss five Premier league games, including next month’s trip to Chelsea, as well as Arsenal’s opening three Champions League games.
So now both Theo and RVP will miss six weeks after initially being ruled out for two, same old story. I’ve already written an article on Arsenal’s injuries and wont bore you with it all again.
Apparently this is Theo’s eighteenth significant injury since he has been an Arsenal player. Eighteen injuries in four years!
