Arsenal injury news: Jack Wilshere in contention for FA Cup semi-final against Reading

A look at those who will be absent for Wembley meeting

Arsenal are strong favourites heading into their FA Cup semi-final meeting with Reading this weekend and Arsene Wenger will also be buoyed by the near clear-bill of health of his squad.

During his pre-match press conference ahead of Saturday's match at Wembley, the Arsenal manager revealed that Jack Wilshere has returned to full fitness to provide some more competition to his side.

He said: "Everybody feels that it is difficult to get in the team, all the players have top, top quality.

"Of course it's difficult for me as well to make these kind of decisions.

"You do not ask anybody to understand that he doesn't play because they all deserve to play.

"They have to accept it and to respect the decision, that is what you want from the players."

The Gunners, who are defending the trophy, will hope to maintain their impressive run of form that has seen them win their last 10 domestic matches.

But if they are to beat Championship side Reading, they will have to do so without the following players...
