More trouble looms in Emirates stadium as cech gets injured

– Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech will not be in action for up to four weeks

– The goalkeeper will miss at least six crucial matches

The Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech has been ruled out for three to four weeks due to an injury sustained during their home match against Swansea

The no.1 shot-stopper sustained the injury when he came up for a corner and the Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger disclosed that the goalkeeper was suffering from a groin problem before the game.

“Cech had a little groin problem but declared himself 100% fit. You trust the player. He is 33 years of age,” said Wenger.

As a result, the former Chelsea keeper is likely to miss at least four Premier League games, plus the Champions League second leg in Barcelona and the FA Cup replay against Hull.

Meanwhile, Santi Cazorla could miss the rest of the season after suffering a devastating injury. The player was hoping to return after his recuperation from a knee injury but that was stalled because of an Achilles problem.

Also, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has been ruled out for up to eight weeks due to a knee injury. However, the player is expected to return to action before the start of Euro 2016, as the player has been told he will not require surgery.
