Emmanuel duo, Eboue and Adebayor, face late fitness tests for this weekend's game at Middlesbrough.

Eboue has been out since the Carling Cup semi-final first leg with an ankle problem, and Adebayor received a knock to his knee in the second leg, but both will be hoping to make it back at the Riverside.

"Adebayor has been touched at his knee," Arsène Wenger told Arsenal TV Online. "We will see how he reacts later.

"Eboue had a test this morning and will have one tomorrow morning. We'll make a decision after training then."

One player who won't make it on Saturday is Abou Diaby, who after recently returning from a long spell on the sidelines now has a knee problem.

"Diaby is out with a knee problem, twisted ligaments. He has a scan later today," confirmed the boss.

Wenger also mentioned that all other injured players are nearing a return.

"There are still plenty of players out - Baptista, Ljungberg, Hleb, Gallas. They are not long term now but they are out for the weekend game."
