Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger was happy with Cesc Fabregas' performance in victory at Blackburn Rovers.
It was the captain's first start for the season.
Wenger said: "It was his first start. He has shown that he has class but of course he is not completely there yet. I planned to play him for an hour and I left him on for longer. In two weeks he should be ready to play."
On Robin van Persie's injury, he added on arsenal.com: "He twisted his ankle and the first news is 10 days. If there is no bad news tomorrow it should be two weeks maybe."
