Arsène Wenger hopes that this weekend's Everton game will go ahead.

Snow around the UK disrupted numerous midweek fixtures earlier this week, including Arsenal's game-in-hand against Bolton.

Wenger was keen for the Bolton game to go ahead, although with hindsight he admits the rest might've been good for his players.

"Hopefully we can play [against Everton] because it is very difficult to rearrange the games," the manager said.

"But at the moment we have played many games and we have a short squad, so the midweek break was a little help to recover from some knocks and bruises."

The Frenchman believes another break this weekend could disrupt his team's momentum, as well as cause inconvinience in terms of finding new dates for the delayed fixtures.

"We don't want a break," he continued. "We have a good momentum and we don't want to interrupt that.

"We tried everything to play [against Bolton] because the fixtures are a nightmare. To find reasonable dates in the season is very difficult."
