Reuters - Sun, 08 Nov 12:06:00 2009

Midfielder Abou Diaby will not be fit to play for France in their World Cup play-off against Ireland later this month, according to Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger.

FOOTBALL - ABOU DIABY - FRANCE - 0

French television show Telefoot quoted Wenger as saying Diaby would be sidelined for three weeks because of a calf injury.

Diaby was replaced after 23 minutes in Arsenal's 4-1 win at Wolverhampton in the Premier League on Saturday.

France travel to Ireland next Saturday and will be at home against Giovanni Trapattoni's side the following Wednesday.

  11. Ramsey is very much like a young Fabregas. With­ experience under his belt, he's got amazing­ potential.

  13. Blessing in disguise...while it's not good­ number-wise, but thank God, we can watch Nasri,­ Rosicky, Ramsey or even any of the young ones­ play....we will miss his height, but skill-wise, Nasri,­ Rosicky and Ramsey can pick that up....Anyone thing­ Ramsey plays a lil bit similar to Fabregas?
