Arsenal have been dealt a blow with the news that they'll be without star midfielder Aaron Ramsey for at least a month. The Welsh international picked up the problem in the North London derby draw against Tottenham Hotspur on the weekend, and scans have confirmed he'll be sidelined for a minimum of four weeks.

Ramsey is the midfielder Gunners boss Arsène Wenger would least like to have injured, as he's matured into the club's most important creative force over the last couple of seasons. His dynamism in midfield is illustrated by the 10 goals he scored in just 23 Premier League games last season, though an injury stopped him from featuring over the Christmas period. It's no coincidence this was the time Arsenal's title challenge turned to mush.
If there is some good news for Arsenal, it's that Ramsey's midfield counterpart Jack Wilshere will be fit enough to play against Chelsea on the weekend. He was struggling with an ankle problem against Spurs, though it hasn't turned out to be anything serious.
