Abou Diaby is the current player of Arsenal who is playing a lead role to for the club. He scored two goals in the latest win against Portsmouth. Similarly Patrick Viere was also playing the lead role for years before he shifted to Juventus and after one year he left the same club for Inter Milan.

Shortly after he signed for the club, he got injured and could not play for the game. Now he set up ready to play for the coming important matches. Diaby has the ability to quickly change from defence to attacking position.

Arsenal Boss, Wenger, said:

“His ability to win the ball back is just like Vieira. He is capable of a very quick transitions from defence to attack and has fantastic strength box to box, nobody can go with him. Diaby is a bit more offensive than Vieira but when he plays a more defensive role he is very similar. He worked very hard in the summer and this could be his season. He has prepared very well, looks sharp and strong and has everything for a Premier League midfielder. If it’s a little pull he will be out for three weeks, if it’s tightness he could make Wednesday. We will see in the next 48 hours.
