Arsene Wenger admitted that Arsenal are waiting on news of three 'very bad injuries' to Theo Walcott, Emmanuel Adebayor and Bacary Sagna after a disastrous 2-1 defeat at Stoke City.
Having thrown away a two-goal lead to draw 4-4 with Spurs in midweek, Arsenal suffered their third league loss of the season as goals from Ricardo Fuller and Seyi Olofinjana sealed the points for Stoke before Gael Clichy's injury-time consolation goal.
As if that wasn't bad enough, Dutch striker Robin van Persie faces a suspension after being sent off for throwing Stoke goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen to the turf.
But with Sagna and Adebayor both limping off with ankle knocks before England winger Theo Walcott was stretchered off with a suspected shoulder injury, Wenger conceded his main concern ahead of Wednesday's Champions League clash against Fenerbahce was the status of his injured trio.
"We have very bad injuries with Adebayor, Walcott and Sagna. One or two others have knocks, but it's the kind of thing that happens when you are less sharp. You become less agile and can get out of tackles less quickly," he said.
"At this stage, we don't know how long they will be out. But Robin van Persie's red card was very, very harsh. If (Stoke defender) Andy Griffin does not get a yellow card in the game and Van Persie gets a red, then I have to review my rule book.
"He should not have done what he did, but I don't think it was a red card." Arsenal's failure to cope with Stoke's physical approach and the incredible throw-ins of midfielder Rory Delap, which led to both Stoke goals, contributed to their downfall. And Wenger admitted that Tony Pulis's team were worthy winners at the Britannia Stadium.
"We were not sharp enough to create chances with the possession that we had, but they scored from two throw-ins and that was basically the game," he said.
