Sol Campbell and Robin van Persie made successful comebacks from injury as Arsenal beat Brighton 1-0 in a friendly played behind-closed-doors at the Club's training ground on Tuesday morning according to the clubs website


Campbell in his first appearance since he suffered bruising to his ankle on February 1, played the entire 90 minutes while Van Persie, who has been sidelined with a broken toe, played for 72 minutes.


Freddie Ljungberg is likely to be out for 10 days with his calf injury, so will miss the home game to Charlton this weekend, it is expected he could be back for the Portsmouth game the following week.

No, I can't find anything, judging by where he is on the list of players I am thinking he is a central defender, but its a pure guess. Yes sounds like Theo is getting tried out in a few positions, I look forward to him making his debut, you get the feeling it won't be long.
