Arsenal midfielder Samir Nasri is a doubt for the Champions Leagueclash against Dynamo Kiev as the Gunners await an assessment of hisankle injury before a decision is made whether he travels with the restof the squad to Ukraine.

Gael Clichy and Emmanuel Eboue picked up slight knocks during thePremier League win at Blackburn at the weekend, although MikaelSilvestre has been earmarked for his Gunners debut after a minorsetback in his recovery from a thigh complaint.

Dynamo coach Yuri Semin watched Emmanuel Adebayor score ahat-trick at Ewood Park but insists he will not man-mark the striker onWednesday in the Group Gclash at Valeri Lobanovsky Stadium.

"We knew very well prior to this the capabilities of the Arsenal forward,"said Semin."But we will not be putting a man-marker on him. Adebayor plays all over thepitch, and in every zone there will be one of our players to meet him."
