Arsene Wenger confirmed this to newsmen in a press conference ahead of their clash with Anderlecht on Wednesday night as reported on the club website.

''He had his first injury in Nice,'' said the French man. ''It was a knee problem and I think he was a bit rushed back. 

'He didn't use his legs so his muscle became weaker, then he got injured during the World Cup. And after that he came to us injured, from the World Cup. 

''It took him two months to play a game. I had to bring him on against Galatasaray without warm-up, without being prepared and he had a recurrence of that injury.
