Rosicky worry for Gunners
Arsenal, 12:31, December 9, 2008 ,
Arsene Wenger says it will be 'March at the earliest' before Arsenal midfielder Thomas Rosicky will be ready to return.
The Czech Republic international has been struggling with a hamstring injury picked up way back in January and has been forced to undergo two operations in a bid to cure the problem.
Rosicky had his latest operation in Germany last month and although he is due to return to the Emirates next week, Wenger says it will still be a few months before he is ready to play again.
"He's doing rehab at the moment," Wenger revealed. "He's back here on December 17 and then hopefully we can start to work with him. But it's a long-term prospect - maybe March at the earliest."
Meanwhile, there is better news concerning Eduardo, who looks set to make his long awaited return for the Gunners reserves next week.
Wenger revealed: "He will play on December 16 in the reserve team."
