Emirates Cup This Weekend

Arsenal play their 1st Emirates Cup match today. The Emirates Cup for those that don't know is a pre-season tournament held over a weekend at Arsenal's home ground, Emirates Stadium. This year's participants include: Paris- St. Germain (Arsenal's opponents today), Inter-Milan (Arsenal's opponents tomorrow) & Valencia.

Emmanuel Adebayor, Tomas Rosicky & Theo Walcott will all miss this weekend's tournament with minor injuries picked up in Arsenal's training camp in Austria. According to Arsenal.com, the injuries are not serious & the players are being held out of the tournament as a precaution.

Too Late News!: Freddie Ljungberg was sold to West Ham United during the week, so that means there is no one left at Arsenal from the 2002 double winning side & that Arsene Wenger has for all intents & purposes has completely rebirthed the Arsenal side.
