Welbeck Out for Italy Match

Saturday, March 28

The FA announced Saturday that Welbeck would not play against Italy and had been sent home due to his injury. 

England manager Roy Hodgson talked about the injury, according to the announcement:

"

We have a problem with James Milner who had to leave, we decided to let Leighton Baines go home and of course we lost Danny Welbeck, who unfortunately picked up a slight knee injury [against Lithuania].

"

Hodgson announced after Friday's match that Welbeck suffered an injury, per BBC Radio 5 Live.

Welbeck scored England's second goal and earned a 9.6 rating out of 10 on WhoScored.com. News of his knee injury definitely put a damper on the day.

However, the problem doesn't appear to be too serious, so it would be a bit premature to begin panicking too much, especially for Arsenal supporters.
