Arsene Wenger told that Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain miss three weeks and Theo Walcott miss until December.

Arsenal's Arsene Wenger has said Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will be back out for 20 days – but the Arsenal boss said fellow England winger Theo Walcott is set to be out until December.

Both Gunners suffered injuries during the Capital One Cup defeat at Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday night and will miss next week's Champions League clash with Bayern Munich.

They join a long injury list at the Emirates with Jack Wilshere, Aaron Ramsey, Danny Welbeck, Tomas Rosicky, Mikel Arteta and David Ospina all also out of action. Joel Campbell is set to be given his first Premier League start on the right of midfield at Swansea tomorrow.

Oxlade-Chamberlain suffered a hamstring strain while Walcott hurt his calf. Asked about his gut feeling about the length of absence for the two, Wenger said: “One will be 20 days, the other a bit longer. But we have shown we can deal with injuries. You have to analyse every single case but also you can't over-analyse. Injuries happen.
