BAD TO CURSE

Gabriel latest casualty in Gunners' injury hell

- JOHN CROSS

GABRIEL has suffered the latest in a long line of injuries which has cursed Arsenal's season.

The Brazil defender pulled up clutching his hamstring during the win over Fulham on Tuesday and could miss both legs of the Champions League quarter-final with Spanish giants Real Madrid.

The injury could sideline him for weeks and Mikel Arteta said after the game he fears it is a big problem.

Manager Arteta also pointed to the fact that Arsenal have had to cope with injuries all season long so they would regard it as just another setback ahead of their biggest games of the campaign.
