Arsene Wenger believes Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas will be back to his usual self tonight after confirming the Spaniard is ‘completely free’ of injury.
Fabregas has been dogged by a troublesome hamstring injury for some time and the player himself admitted it was playing on his mind during Saturday’s defeat to Newcastle, which goes some way to explain his poor performance. But Wenger feels he is now clear of the injury and has backed Fabregas to shine tonight:
“He is completely clear [of his injury],” said Wenger.
“It has taken a lot out of him mentally and I believe that the fact he came through well against Newcastle you will see a different player on Wednesday night.”
Let’s hope Arsene is right because Arsenal just aren’t the same side when Fabregas isn’t on form. A third defeat in a row would be a disaster so let’s get back to playing football Arsenal! I’m confident the players will respond and pick up three points. 2-1 to the Gunners!
