Arsenal boss Wenger upbeat over return of injured trio

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is upbeat over Theo Walcott's return to full fitness.

Walcott has resumed full training following a shoulder problem which needed an operation, while fellow long-term absentees captain Cesc Fabregas and Tomas Rosicky could both be back in action by the start of April.

Wenger revealed: "Theo is well, he just needs to get used to contact in training, but it looks positive.

"Eduardo has a small chance to be back for Burnley, even (Emmanuel) Adebayor has a small chance, maybe Burnley will be too tight, but a small chance.

"Fabregas and Rosicky (will return in) three weeks."
