Arsenal’s run with injuries did not get any better on the weekend when it was revealed Emmanuel Adebayor will miss up to three weeks with a hamstring injury.
The striker injured himself in the 38th minute of the 0-0 draw with Tottenham at White Hart Lane and had to be stretchered from the pitch.
It looks as though the Togolese star will be out for Arsenal’s fourth round FA Cup clash with Cardiff and quite possibly the second round first leg tie of the Champions League with AS Roma.
