Arsenal star returns for Man Utd?

Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas is hoping that he will recover from his injury to return for the crucial game with Manchester United at Old Trafford next week.

The Gunners currently find themselves at the top of the Premiership thanks to three wins in a row without their talismanic captain.

However, Fabregas will certainly be back in the running for the crucial game at Old Trafford should he shake off his hamstring injury.

"I'm happy to say everything is going according to plan with my rehabilitation.

"We've tried some new treatments and hopefully they can make a difference.

"My hamstrings are feeling good, and my body feels good and rested.

"The Manchester United game is the target, so hopefully we can make it happen."
