Arsenal Vs Spurs: Gunners set to miss four key players

Four key Arsenal players may be missing in action during this weekend's highly anticipated London derby against city rivals, Tottenham Hotspur.
According to Coach Arsene Wenger, the quartet of  Theo Walcott, Santi Cazorla, Nacho Monreal and Kieran Gibbs remain doubtful.
All four players, apart from Gibbs, were left at home for Tuesday's Champions League trip to Ludogorets Razgrad, although Wenger said Bellerin was mainly rested as a precaution.
 "I left him behind because I was cautious with him. I could have basically forced the issue, he could have played maybe in Bulgaria," Wenger told a news conference. "But he should be all right."
 However, Walcott, Cazorla and Monreal were all due to face fitness tests ahead of Sunday's game.
 "The closest to coming back looks to be Walcott," Wenger said.
 Gibbs is also a doubt after hurting his shoulder against Ludogorets, meaning Wenger could potentially be without both his left-backs for the game.
"I don't know how [Gibbs] will respond to that. I will see today," Wenger said.
