Henry Misses Bolton Trip

Fri Nov 24 04:47PM

All your Arsenal news and conjecture, right here.

Thierry Henry has been ruled out of Arsenal's trip to Bolton on Saturday because of neck injury.

"It is a short-term problem, and he should be okay for Wednesday night against Fulham," said manager Arsene Wenger on Friday afternoon.

Fellow forward Robin van Persie is suspended following a fifth yellow card of the season against Liverpool.

Togo striker Emmanuel Adebayor could lead the attack, although England starlet Theo Walcott may get a start.

Gilberto is pressing for a return after dropping to the bench against Hamburg following his trip to Brazil on compassionate grounds.

Decisions like this can change a season...at 998th in the overall standings, i'm taking the gamble, Henry OUT, Saha in, and 9 points to strengthen the midfield. If Henry goes on to score a hattrick against Fulham, I will re-evaluate my reason to live. Seriously.

I have the same record with Henry and Rooney. For some reason they never perform when they are in my team and they scores when I dump them ...

Don't forget last week in 45 minutes Henry scored 21 points. So even if he is playing one game he is a player that can get more points then most get in two, maybe even three matches!

Just having a look at next week's fantasy fixtures -- it looks like the rise of bottom half. Lots of mediocre or poor teams have multiple games, which makes them pretty irresistible. Liking Blackburn's games...
