| Arsene Wenger |
Arsene Wenger revealed Arsenal would go as far as stopping players
shaking hands if it meant keeping a virus from spreading through the
squad.
The Gunners hope to have Per Mertesacker available for
Saturday evening's trip to West Ham after the German missed the midweek
Champions League win over Olympiakos with a flu-like illness which had
also previously laid low England forward Theo Walcott, midfielder
Francis Coquelin and captain Thomas Vermaelen.
While the current
outbreak is nothing like an epidemic, Wenger maintains the club are
always cautious in regards to prevention, and he said: "We have improved
the level of hygiene in the dressing room, we clean everything. It is
funny, but shaking hands is one of the biggest things to spread virus."
