Sagna ruled out for three weeks

Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna has been ruled out for at least three weeks with an ankle injury.

The France international scored the Gunners' goal in their 2-1 defeat at Chelsea on Sunday but then sustained the injury late on in the game.

Manager Arsene Wenger told Arsenal TV Online the loss of Sagna was 'completely disruptive' and now it appears he will have to find cover at right-back until mid-April at best.

'He has an ankle injury and the first news that we have is that he could be out for quite a while,' said Wenger.

'I don't know [exactly] how long he will be out but I feel it will be three weeks at least. Five is the [worst case scenario].

'I have seen the injury again on tape. He wanted to kick the ball out and he twisted his ankle. That made it a bad injury.'

Bring on Hoyte - Nani can have some fun again with him!

If only they had another decent right back in their squad..

REd FUn DevIl · 27th March 2008, 19:35

Now they are truly fecked. I imagine they will use Eboue as RB while Sagna is out.

That allows Diaby to get a starting place or Rosicky if he is fit again.

Sam#1 · 27th March 2008, 19:37

Do we play them when he's out ?

w'or bobby · 27th March 2008, 19:38

Yes, we do, hehe

Yes. So do Liverpool, Liverpool and Liverpool.

Sam#1 · 27th March 2008, 19:38

I can't wait.

Lets just stick Ronaldo on Hoyte, and have some fun...

I think its gonna be Eboue.

This is NOT good news. It would be much better if ARsenal knocked Liverpool out of the CL. Nobody wants to endure another Chelsea/Liverpool semi-final.

Wes · 27th March 2008, 19:54

poor lad. Hope he gets better soon.

Raven_Blade · 27th March 2008, 19:57

No biggie. They will just play Eboue there instead.

GE · 27th March 2008, 19:58

Best buy in the Premiership this season, in my opinion.

Big loss for Arsenal.

Wes · 27th March 2008, 20:01

i know, its only terrible. boo-hoo.

Not the best buy but definitely one of the better signings of the season. Imo, the best right back in the league. This is a huge huge loss for arsenal.

He has been the best this season. Maybe Arsenal's most consistent player too.

Solius · 28th March 2008, 03:33

Wenger's fault for not spending.

hycool · 28th March 2008, 05:25

Still I have a gut feeling Arsenal will still KO Liverpool in the CL

Sagna's injury will hardly make a decisive difference to that match, although Wenger will probably say it did if Arsenal lose. Its not as if Liverpool are overflowing with quality on the left wing to take advantage of Sagna being out.

It could be a big problem for them against us though. Hopefully we put Ronaldo on whoever replaces him.

considering Eboue was our number 1 right back last year i think he should go alright. Except the fact hes a cnut.

The Hairdryer · 28th March 2008, 06:19

Hopefully he makes a miracle recover before the Liverpool games and then reinjures it before ours.

I'm pretty sure it's an accessory....

And they have a go at Ronaldo being in the closet

Mozza · 28th March 2008, 07:58

That is probably good news for them as it'll stop Wenger playing Eboue on the right wing

cloud218 · 28th March 2008, 09:20

Hehe, title chances on both Premiership and Champions League seems to go down once again.

Van Piorsing · 28th March 2008, 09:23

This is slowly turning into true nightmare for Arsenal.

He'll propably miss Champions League clash against Liverpool.

... but something tells me he'll return earlier than expected.

IBleedRed · 28th March 2008, 14:49

Have any other players injured themselves like that at the end of the season when their team was in a tough fight for the title?

JazzG · 28th March 2008, 16:30

Huge loss for us, has been superb for us this season and even against Chelsea when he went off you could see just how our shape at the back was ruined. Has been a key member for us and amazing that when he was signed in the summer lots were a bit surprised as to why we spent £7mill on a new RB considering how good Eboue was, problem was Eboue was brilliant in attack but use to leave large gaps behind him which would be exploited all too easily.

The one game where he decided to take his extensions off he had a bad game so definitely want him to keep those

Will it be Eboue at right-back now and Theo or Rosicky (if healthy) on the wing?

Eboue is already on 2 yellows in the CL - it's easy to see him pick up another at the Emirates against Liverpool and miss the Anfield game.
And he's always a red waiting to happen.

Doesn't augur well.
Toure at right-back and Senderos to fill in?

sammsky1 · 28th March 2008, 17:46

Its a shame for the player. I rate him highly.

Twas always going to end this way for Le Arse. Given the intensity if matches these days and the increased propensity for a player to get fatigued and injured, they simply do not have the depth to maintain a campaign.

They will fall away as a distant third ... and in years into the future, this season will be remembered as a classic run in vs us and the Chavs of West London.

I think he is gonna miss our game also.

Magnus · 28th March 2008, 23:49

FUCK. I don´t ever wish an injury to a player. (might have but only Liverpoolplayers and it´s sad) We always win againt the red scum of Murkeydive anyway so why... Off topic now. I DON´T WANT ANY ARSE PLAYER INJURED

....until they have played Poo off the park

Now seriousley, no injuries.
