London - Arsenal captain Thierry Henry faces another spell on the sidelines after injuring his stomach and groin in the Champions League exit to PSV Eindhoven on Wednesday. The France striker, whose season has been interrupted by a catalogue of injuries, is to have a scan on Thursday to determine the extent of the problems.

"He will be out for a few weeks," Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said.

"It is a different injury. He has torn his stomach muscle and his groin.

"It is sad for him. He's had a very difficult season."

The news is another blow to Arsenal who followed their Carling Cup final defeat by Chelsea by going out of the Champions League to PSV on Wednesday, 2-1 on aggregate.

The Gunners are fourth in the Premiership, a point behind Liverpool but with two games in hand.

henry`s poor form this season is not because of enjuries but i feel the man is overating himself and he is lacking that fighting spirit in his game.guess he should be stripped of the captaincy and his game will improve
