"We have to wait for tomorrow, but I hope I can wear the Arsenal shirt again this season.

That to me implies that he is at least expecting to miss a few games, time to bring in Lampard on my fantasy footy team i think!

If you don't drink milk you won't be good enough to play for Accrington Stanley

Ian Rush, quality!!!

*Only be good enough

[Shanks]

Out for 6 weeks..

Probably done more damage taking that pen.

[Baracus]

As long as he's available for Spain that is all the matters now

It's possible and certainly Chris Kirkland looked like he wouldn't know a bottle of milk if it hit him in the head (putting him out for 12 weeks).

But I thought all the Arsenal players had pizza after games, which got reported on at the Old Trafford food fight a few years back, and cheese would surely count as dairy?

Some of the stuff on this forum

Fabregas does eat dairy produce.

Dunno about that but I'm convinced Spurs will beat United. How many times over the years have we watched Spurs desperate for them to beat the Mancs and they've let us down time after time, bending over for them when United are there for the taking. Be ****ing typical.

What makes you think this time will be any different?

well young Evertonian Gosling will be absent for 9 month due to knee injury

[Shaggy]

What makes you think this time will be any different?

Because for the first time in living memory we may well need a United win.

There's no way he'd have been able to carry on playing if he'd broken his leg.

Nobody has a broken leg and doesnt know about it.

Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas will miss the rest of the season after cracking his right fibula in Wednesday's 2-2 Champions League draw with Barcelona.

Fabregas picked up the injury when he won a penalty after colliding with Barca centre-back Carles Puyol.

The Spaniard, 22, underwent a scan on Thursday which confirmed he will be out of action for at least six weeks.

William Gallas' season may also be over after he suffered a calf injury, and Andrey Arshavin also faces a spell out.

Fabregas, who was a doubt before the quarter-final first leg with severe bruising to his knee and leg, was only declared fit to play after the final warm-up.

He was visibly pained after lashing in the equalising spot-kick five minutes from time against his boyhood club and left the Emirates on crutches.

"When I took the penalty, I was quite strong, but after when I went to get the ball, I could not walk any more," he added.

The Spaniard would have been suspended for the return leg in Barcelona after picking up a third booking of the competition.

While defender Gallas was stretchered off just before half-time and seems likely to miss the rest of Arsenal's campaign, Arshavin told his website that he expects to be back from his calf problem in two to three weeks.

Gunners manager Arsene Wenger lamented the loss of both players, admitting that he had taken a risk on Gallas, who had missed the last six weeks through injury.

"Gallas has a calf strain and will be out for a while now," said Wenger. "I took a gamble that didn't pay off. Yes I regret that now. Arshavin has also done his calf."

In better news for Arsenal, striker Robin van Persie is expected to return to full training in two weeks after being sidelined since November with an ankle ligament injury.

Wenger revealed he hopes to "give him some big games to aim for at the end of the season."

Van Persie, who suffered his injury playing for the Netherlands, had scored seven goals in the Premier League and one in the Champions League this season.

I just thought i'd post them for your benefit Craig, see if you would argue with the facts, maybe claim that he put so much force behind his penalty kick that was what broke his leg, not the tackle, which is why he was able to play on up til that point?? No?? Not today?
