Arsenal missing Fabregas for UCL qualifier

Arsenal will be without key midfielder Cesc Fabregas and several other first-team regulars for Wednesday's Champions League qualifier against FC Twente in Holland.

Fabregas (hamstring) joins the likes of Kolo Toure (hip), Abou Diaby (thigh), Philippe Senderos (hamstring) and summer signing Samri Nasri (knee/thigh) on the sidelines along with Tomas Rosicky and Eduardo, who are both recovering from long-term injuries.

The number of absentees means Wales Under-21 international Aaron Ramsey - who joined the Gunners in a £5million deal from Cardiff - could be handed a full competitive debut alongside young Brazilian Denilson in midfield.

Murshidism - Arsenal will have to deal with FC Twente wisely if want to go through to the group stage. I believe with the absence of Fabregas, Toure and Rosicky, will hamper their ambition to reach to the next stage. All the best Arsenal...!
