I haven’t seen the Press Conference with Arsene yesterday, however it was confirmed that Verminator<\/a>\u00a0will miss the game against Bolton due to injury to his Achilles he picked up on International duty, thankfully it will only keep him out as far as the game against Bolton this afternoon. This news certainly comes in as suprise as we have already lost Walcott for up to six weeks<\/a>\u00a0while playing for England this week,\u00a0which leaves us rather short in the striking force some would say, as RVP is out until mid\u00a0October now and Bendtner still has four weeks to recover from his groin injury.<\/p>\n

No doubt we need some experience at the back and Squillaci is the best we have at this very moment, he has all required experience however he lacks playing time in the Priemier League. It will be a huge test for him and Koscielny who need to be on their toes as Bolton by no means will be an easy game, so fingers crossed for both of them. They will hopefully have a good understanding with Alminua and another clean sheet at home.<\/p>\n

The good news we had this week was that Nasri has recovered early and if required will take part this afternoon, it was also\u00a0good to hear that Fabregas has noticed he hasn’t been playing well and is looking to improve his form:<\/p>\n

\u201cI was out of form and during the (Blackburn) game I knew it, but hopefully you\u2019ll see an improvement (against Bolton). Nobody needs to tell me otherwise \u2013 I\u2019m always hard on myself and aware when I\u2019m playing badly.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re ready for Bolton. It\u2019ll be a hard game, but hopefully an enjoyable one \u2013 and one that, like any home game, we\u2019re confident about.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I will be watching Cesc closely as his body language was definitely not right lately. Let’s hope our Captian plays with his heart this afternoon and can show his good form again. Not too sure what the team sheet will look like but I have a feeling we will see Eboue to take over from Walcott on the right flank and Squillaci with Koscielny in the center \u00a0at the back. I’m suspecting Cesc to start with Jack and Song in the middle but I think Diaby will get the nod ahead of Jack as this will be a very physical encounter no doubt. This leaves Arshavin on the left\u00a0and Chamakh up front and with his presence and work rate I have no doubts he will cause havoc in Bolton’s defence.<\/p>\n

Looking at the bookies there is definitely a good deal on with Paddy Power with 9\/1 for correct score line at 3:1 to the almighty Arsenal,\u00a0I think I shall be having some of that and hopefully I will be collecting my winnings later on. For those of you going to The Grove this afternoon have a good time and get behind the lads on my behalf, I will have resort to a stream I will have to find just before we kick off.<\/p>\n

Have a good day everyone and let’s kick some Bolton’s arses…<\/p>\n
