Arsenal
midfielder Aaron Ramsey will miss the Champions League Group B clash at German
side Schalke 04 on Tuesday due to a groin strain he picked up against
Manchester United at the weekend.
Ramsey was
substituted during the second half of Arsenal's 2-1 defeat at United and a club
statement said he will be replaced by Johan Djourou in the squad for the trip
to Gelsenkirchen.
The
Welshman's injury could open the door for Theo Walcott to regain a starting
spot after the England winger was consigned to the bench in recent weeks
following an impasse on signing a new contract.
Schalke top
Group B with seven points and are one ahead of Arsenal after they won 2-0 in
London last month.
