April 2nd: Arsenal's captain Cesc Fabregas is out for the rest of the season after cracking his fibula in Wednesday's 2-2 Champion's League quarter final draw with Barcelona. Fabregas suffered the injury late in the second half after colliding with Charles Puyol. He continued to the end of the game, scoring his side's second goal but a scan on Thursday revealed the extend of the damage. A club statement read: "Cesc will miss the remainder of the domestic campaign as he will be out of action for at least six weeks. Everyone at the club wishes Cesc a full and speedy recovery". Arsenal will also be without William Gallas who was stretchered off with a recurrence of his calf injury and Andrei Arshavin who has also injured his calf and will be out for three weeks.
