Arsenal winger Theo Walcott may return from injury for the Manchester United game this weekend.
The Englishman has missed 10 games in all competitions so far this season due to an abdominal injury, which he picked up just moments before the Stoke City game at the Emirates Stadium.
If the winger was to return, not only would this be a boost for Arsenal, The Gunners would also feel confident about extending their lead to 11-points over last year’s Premier League winners.
Walcott has been unable to play for 10 club games and 2 world cup qualifier matches after requiring minor surgery for a stomach problem. The English international has stepped up his game hoping to retain some sort of spot in the team against the Red Devils this weekend. Having Walcott available will make yet another choice for Arsene Wenger to his growing attacking options.
Neither Jack Wilshere or Kieran Gibbs are available this weekend. The midfielder twisted his ankle in training, whilst Gibbs went of with a calf strain late on in the win over Liverpool last weekend.
