Edu latest injury for Arsenal

ARSENAL are in danger of losing another midfielder, after Edu picked up a knee injury in training on Friday.

Patrick Vieira is out for at least two weeks with a knee problem, and his replacement Edu is definitely out of Saturday`s trip to Middlesbrough.

Tests are set to be carried out on the Brazilian, but there are fears that he will miss the remainder of the season.

Ray Parlour is set to play in the centre of midfield at the Riverside after overcoming a hamstring problem.

Gunners chief Arsene Wenger has mounting problems, as another midfielder, Gilberto Silva may be asked to play at centre half unless Sol Campbell wins his appeal over the red card he received against Manchester United at the weekend.

The other option would be Pascal Cygan, but either way the French tactician`s options are severely limited.
