Bad and good news for Gunners

(08-09-2010) Arsenal were dealt a fresh blow on Tuesday with the news that star striker Robin Van Persie is set to miss the next six weeks due to an ankle injury. The Dutch star picked up the knock in the Gunners 2-1 win over Blackburn in late August. Brighter news for Arsenal fans is that French winger Samir Nasri has recovered from knee surgery ahead of schedule. The 23-year-old sustained a meniscal injury against Liverpool on the opening day of the season. He is expected to return to full training in the next few days.
