AliádÃère scored both goals in the 2-0 win over West Brom and he now appears to have a chance in the First team due too a injuriy to Emmanuel Adebayor. Arsène Wenger has revealed that Adebayor will probably be out of action for three weeks. With Julio Baptista and Freddie Ljungberg out also, and the manager saying Theo Walcott will be played primarily on the wing to get a good education in attacking, AliádÃère’s only competition for a place upfront with Thierry Henry now is Robin van Persie. He will definatly get a chance in this saturday with wenger having a eye on the upcomming champions league match againts CSKA Moscow.

JEREMIE ALIADIERE is to hold talks with Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger to sort out his future.
The French Under-21 star is becoming increasingly frustrated at the lack of opportunities to play first-team football.
He has had loan spells at Celtic, West Ham and Wolves but none of the three opted to make him a permanent signing and he is now back at the club he joined as a 16-year-old.
But he can see no prospect of breaking through to the first-team squad — except for the occasional appearance in the Carling Cup, a competition which Wenger uses to give youth players and fringe players a run-out.
Unless his contract is cancelled, 23-year-old Aliadiere will have to wait for the transfer window in the New Year — and Aston Villa could be surprise contenders to sign him.
In 21 minutes, Thierry Henry’s forward pass to Cesc Fabregas was intercepted in midfield and a neat Charlton move led to Bent, just onside, tapped in Hasselbaink’s low cross to the far post.
Then Henry chased down a ball in the right corner, nutmegged the defender with a pass to Hleb in the box, and Alexandre Hleb picked out Robin van Persie, who drilled in the equalizer on 31.
It was 1-1 at half-time and then, on 49, Robin van Persie jumped up to volley in an Eboue cross from the edge of the box, a spectacular Goal of the Month-type strike.
