Fabianski out for three weeks

Goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski out for three weeks with knee injury
Arsenal goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski has been ruled out for three weeks after suffering a thigh injury in his comeback game against Liverpool in the Carling Cup on Wednesday night.

The 24-year-old Pole sustained the injury in his first game of the season, having missed the beginning of the campaign due to knee surgery over the summer.

And now he has joined the Gunners' injury list ahead of Saturday's north London derby against Tottenham at the Emirates Stadium, which also includes star midfielders Theo Walcott and Tomas Rosicky.

'We lost Lukasz Fabianski with a thigh injury,' Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger revealed to the club's official website.

'He will be out for three weeks. Of course it is big disappointment because he has just come back from injury.

'Also Jack Wilshere (ankle), Theo Walcott (knee), Denilson (back) and Rosicky (knee) will not be back for the game at the weekend.'

Despite the loss of Fabianski, which means Wenger must choose between Manuel Almunia or Vito Mannone to play in goal against rivals Spurs, the manager confirmed he 'didn't lose any other players' from the 2-1 victory over Liverpool.ADNFCR-708-ID-19434270-ADNFCR
