Wenger calls on Gilberto to play at centre back
February 3, 2006
Wenger said this in an interview yesterday:
“Sol Campbell won’t play. I don’t think Gilbert will be ready either, [Kerrea Gilbert, not Gilberto Silva] so there is not a lot to choose from. We don’t have any defenders coming back and the Ivory Coast play on Saturday. I don’t know what I’ll do about it at the moment, I must think. Do I put Gilberto there or keep Flamini at the back? I don’t know.”
This could be interesting. Gilberto started his career at centre back for America MG – and he has only played there once or twice for Arsenal.
At centre back or centre midfield – it looks like Gilberto will definitely playing.
