Arsenal are in midst of an injury crisis.

During last Sunday's 1-1 draw with Norwich City, three players suffered separate injuries - Alexis Sanchez, Santi Cazorla and Laurent Koscielny.

It was reported yesterday that midfielder Cazorla will be out for three months, but manager Arsene Wenger could today give no time-scale on when Cazorla and Sanchez could return.

"At the moment on Alexis, Santi and Mikel [Arteta], we don't know how long they will be out for," Wenger said.

In total, the Gunners have 10 players out injured, in a long list that also includes Jack Wilshere and Danny Welbeck.

So, how will the Arsenal injuries affect Wenger's team selection, click through the gallery below:

The threadbare Gunners are next in action on Saturday, in the Premier League against Sunderland at the Emirates Stadium.

Wenger said that there is a chance Walcott and Koscielny could return for the match against the Black Cats.

"We will make a decision on Saturday on Koscielny and Walcott, they could both make the squad," the manager said.
