Wenger frets over Hleb injury

Arsene Wenger admits Arsenal midfielder Alexander Hleb's hamstring injury 'doesn't look too good'.

Hleb picked up the problem during The Gunners' 2-2 draw at Tottenham Hotspur in the first leg of the Carling Cup semi-final on Wednesday night.

The Belarus international came on as a 56th minute substitute for Abou Diaby, but lasted just 25 minutes before being replaced by Mathieu Flamini.

Following on from the injury Robin van Persie suffered against Manchester United at the weekend, Wenger lamented the latest setback to his squad.

"We lost Van Persie on Sunday and now we have lost Hleb," Wenger told the club's official website.
