Almunia missing for Gunners
Arsenal will be missing goalkeeper Manuel Almunia for the game with Manchester United at Old Trafford today as the Spaniard picked up a wrist injury prior to the match. Jens Lehmann will step in for the Gunners, with Lukasz Fabianski called up to the bench.
Jens Lehmann has had a bitter war of words with Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger in recent weeks, and this surprise call for the German could be the start of a run in the first team for the 'keeper.
