Manager Arsène Wenger has confirmed that striker Eduardo da Silva will not be facing Plymouth in the Third Round of the FA Cup.
The Brazilian had recently recovered from the broken leg he suffered earlier this year, but Wenger doesn't feel that Eduardo is ready for competitive action.
Wenger said: "In two weeks we already have the Plymouth game and he will not be capable to play in that game.
"It is still a bit early because he will be out for two weeks and then he has to get his fitness back.
"He is fantastically keen and a dream to work with but when you have been out for nine months it takes some time to come back to your best form."

Fine,ARSENAL FC is not an hospital.These players are ready to play but it is Mr Wenger that is slowing things.The fact is that Mr Wenger is not seeing the game the way we see it.And my believe is that,it those that want to spoil the team that will leave not the fan.
