Wenger: Rosicky has to adapt

Arsène Wenger has welcomed Tomas Rosicky back to his squad for Saturday's game against Everton.

The Czech midfielder signed a new contract with Arsenal earlier this week despite numerous injury problems in his time at the club.

Wenger admits times could still be tough for the 29-year-old, as his body will have to readapt after such a long spell out.

"Basically our squad is exactly the same as it was before the Bolton game, apart from Tomas Rosicky," the boss said.

"We have a good hope that we will get him back in the squad. But he is the only one that should come back.

"He missed out at West Ham because of a groin injury.

"He has little problems but when you go back to the scan it always comes back reassuring. I believe that is down to the fact that he has not played for such a long time and that his body has to readapt again. But now he is back and completely fit."
