Team News: Eight Arsenal stars out for Swans trip, Wenger forced to hand start to Campbell

Arsene Wenger to face Swansea with eight injuries

ARSENAL will be without forward Theo Walcott (calf) as well as Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Aaron Ramsey (both hamstring) for Saturday's trip to Swansea.

 

Joel Campbell is expected to be given his opportunity on the right flank, despite failing to impress in the Capital One Cup defeat at Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is still unable to select his captain Mikel Arteta (ankle), while goalkeeper David Ospina (shoulder) remains out of action.

 

Midfielder Jack Wilshere (fibula), forward Danny Welbeck and playmaker Tomas Rosicky (both knee) all continue their rehabilitation.

Arsenal provisional squad: Cech, Monreal, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Bellerin, Coquelin, Cazorla, Ozil, Sanchez, Campbell, Giroud, Macey, Gibbs, Debuchy, Chambers, Gabriel, Flamini, Iwobi.
