Fabregas.... fit or unfit for Birmingham clash?

Arsenal captain and Spanish international Cesc Fabregas is in serious doubt of missing the League Cup final against Birmingham. After picking up an injury against Stoke City, Arsene Wenger came out ruling the number 4 unfit for their historic clash which could see them end their long streak without winning a trophy.

However Fabregas and Arsenal fans alike were given some hope when Cesc's personal trainer cliamed that he is indeed fit to play this weekend.

Juan Ferrando - personal trainer - suggested that the substitution against Stoke was indeed a precaution.

He also stated the Cesc will be ready for their second leg clash with Barcelona at the Nou Camp.

Fabreagas is expected to be given right up until kick off to prove his fitness for the clash. However, Wenger will be prioritising the match against Barcelona and even if he does prove to be match fit, he might just be conserved for the crucial clash.
