Arsenal and Arsene Wenger Given Boost with Return of Arshavin and Denilson

Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger has been given a boost in morale with the news on the return of Arshavin and Denilson for their game against Burnley.

Arsenal, who are three points behind leaders Chelsea, will be aiming to close the gap against the current league leaders in the next few games, seeing how Arsenal has easier matches to play than their cross—town rivals.

Arsene Wenger also stated to Arsenal.com that Abou Diaby has a 50—50 chance of making back in time for the Burnley match next Saturday at the Emirates stadium.

Alexander Song will not be playing in the next two games, after receiving a two match suspension, so the fans will be hoping to see Abou Diaby fill—in the defensive midfielder role, if he is fit to partake in the game.

However, with Aaron Ramsey injured and Abou Diaby not guaranteed to play against Burnley, Denilson might be the most likely candidate to fill—in the gap. Although, this might come as worrying news to some of the fans, seeing how inconsistent the Brazilian has been in his last few games.

Arsene Wenger also gave news that will come as breath of fresh air to the Arsenal fans regarding the injury to Aaron Ramsey.

Wenger has announced that the young Welshman's injury is not career—threatening and that he expects Ramsey to make a full recovery, although admitting that it might be a while before Aaron Ramsey sets foot on a pitch.

Arsenal will host Porto after the Burnley game, a game that will prove crucial to Arsenal's campaign, seeing how it can greatly increase the player's confidence in getting their hands on a trophy this season.

Arsenal are now ten games away from the end of the league and collecting as many points as possible from the remaining 30 points will decide the outcome of the Gunners' season.

Also, should Arsenal defeat Porto and with the expected returns of several injured players, the team will greatly increase their chances in the Champions League as well (though it will still be a tough road for Arsenal, after the controversial goal Porto scored in the Estadio de Dragao last month).

With everything to fight for, the Gunners will go out with all guns blazing and will make sure that the trophy drought finally comes to an end after five long trophy—less seasons.
