Arsenal trio Alex Song, Gervinho and Emmanuel Frimpong are suspended. Jack Wilshere saw a specialist on Friday but the club are still waiting for an update on his ankle injury which is expected to keep him out for three more weeks. Nicklas Bendtner is sidelined with an ankle problem and Sebastien Squillaci is also out, along with Kieran Gibbs (hamstring) and Abou Diaby (ankle). Defender Thomas Vermaelen will have a fitness test on Saturday but is expected to be fit and Laurent Koscielny came through a similar check on his back problem on Friday morning.
Midfielder Darren Fletcher will return to the squad. The Scottish international has been suffering from virus which limited him to just two appearances between March and May last season and has so far kept him out of United's side this term. Rio Ferdinand and Antonio Valencia are back in training but Nemanja Vidic will be absent for another month.
MANAGER QUOTES
Sir Alex Ferguson on Arsene Wenger's critics: "I would like to know who is going to replace him. The work he has done in the 15 years he has been at the club is the best in Arsenal's history. Yes, he has not won a trophy for six years but what does that mean? The quality of his side has not been reduced."
Arsene Wenger: "I will try to strengthen the squad in depth because at the moment we are a bit short number-wise but if we get two or three players in we have the quality to challenge. I am anxious yes because I want to do it and I try everything to do it. But I am confident as well because we have some good young players who can make a big step very quickly."
