DiabyCesc Fabregas has failed to recover from a muscular injury and has not travelled to Germany for the Club’s pre-season training camp.
The midfielder missed the recent tour of Asia with the problem and will not join up with the rest of the squad, who flew out to Cologne on Friday afternoon, Arsène Wenger has confirmed.
Summer signing Gervinho has made the trip and is in line to make his Arsenal debut against FC Cologne on Saturday. There is also a place in the squad for goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski, who returns from the shoulder injury that kept him out of action at the back end of last season.
Nicklas Bendtner, Abou Diaby and Emmanuel Eboue have stayed in London.
“[Fabregas] has not completely recovered from his muscular injury,” Wenger told Arsenal.com on Friday. “It is too early for him, he is not ready.
“Gervinho is with us. Fabianski is back. Eboue is injured and is behind and Bendtner is behind.
“Diaby is out longer term so that is why I do not speak about him. We do not count Diaby for August. He will miss the start of the season for sure.”

And Fabianski starts as well.
We're stepping up preparations now so no excuses for playing shite like we did in the last two games.
Unfortunately ze unexpected injureez that I did not see contributed to the loss, although we showed great character and will bounce back in 2016....Originally Posted by Joker

Formed by two mighty tribes, the bores and the bored.
"After all, it was the Gunners’ goalkeeper who started the move that culminated in Thomas’ crowning glory. It was Lukic who, in injury time, decided to throw the ball out to Lee Dixon rather than lump it long..."
Apparently this is the final 'phase one' game where fitness is the major aim, plus I'm not sure how shite a 6-0 win can really be.
Cheeky bid for Podolski while we're out there?
the Gods say NO
any suggestions where I can watch this game?
Is Cesc involved or does he still have a mysterious injury picked up from sitting on his arse all summer?
Has he even been involved in pre-season training at all?
He didn't travel to Germany cos of his 'injury'.Nope, he's not taken part.
