LONDON - Arsenal could be without Germany playmaker Mesut Ozil until the end of April in another blow to the Gunners hopes of winning the English Premier League title. JMon Moore Packers Jersey . Manager Arsene Wenger said on Friday the club-record signing will be sidelined "a minimum of three and a maximum of six weeks" with a hamstring injury. Ozil, who joined Arsenal from Real Madrid for 42 million pounds ($70 million) last summer, was hurt during Tuesdays 1-1 draw at Bayern Munich which saw Arsenal exit the Champions League. Ozils injury adds to a list which includes midfielder Aaron Ramsey and England international Jack Wilshere. Arsenal sits third in the league, seven points behind leader Chelsea with a game in hand.

Johnson did not participate in practice, two days after exiting Torontos win over Utah with a right ankle sprain and leaving the Air Canada Centre on crutches. Theres no timetable for his return, but coach Dwane Casey did not sound optimistic regarding his short-term availability. His ankle is tender, Casey said following Mondays practice session. I dont know how long hes going to be out. Its a pretty good sprain on his ankle. Its nothing more than that. Well see how it goes for the next few days, and see how long hes going to be out. Coming down on the foot of a camera operator after diving for a loose ball on the baseline, Johnson turned his ankle early in the fourth quarter of Saturdays game. After trying to play through it for two minutes, the sixth-year vet hobbled to the locker room where he would remain for the duration of the contest. X-rays were negative, but Johnson was walking with a significant limp, requiring assistance from teammate Jonas Valanciunas to get from the shower to his locker after the game. Even though the Raptors have a rare three-day break before hosting the Grizzlies - his former team - on Wednesday, its unlikely that Johnson will be available for that contest. The team is preparing to move forward without its best perimeter defender, at least for the time being. Its a gang effort, Casey said, asked about replacing Johnson, who has become a valuable piece of his second unit early in the season. Someones got to take up that slot. Next man up. Just because a man is down, the next guy behind him has got to be ready to play, to perform. Whoever that is, whether its putting DeMar [DeRozan] more at the three, or whatever the situation may call, weve got to be ready to attack, next man up. Injuries are part of the NBA. Thats why you have 15 men to a rosster. JMon Moore Jersey. In his second stint with the Raptors, Johnson is logging just under 20 minutes per night, most since 2011-12, his last campaign with Toronto. The injury comes at an especially inopportune time for the 27-year-old, who was in the early stages of putting together a career season. Averaging 7.6 points, 3.8 rebounds and over one steal and block over the first 10 games - while shooting a career-best 57 per cent from the field - Johnson has been Torontos unsung hero off the bench. While the same size is still unquestionably limited, in the 194 minutes that Johnson has played this year, the Raptors are holding opponents to 89.6 points per 100 possessions, the best mark of anyone on the team. Theyre allowing nearly 19 points more (108.3) per 100 possessions in the 286 minutes hes spent on the bench. Of course, so much of that is a testament to his versatility - his ability to switch off on almost any player, defending nearly every position on the floor and co-existing in whichever unit hes out there with. Offensively, hes been a pleasant surprise. James has been playing very under control, within himself is what I like to call it, Casey said ahead of Saturdays game. He watches film diligently and studies the film. Hes not trying to do too much. Hes cut down on a lot of those mistakes and playing within himself has really, really given him an opportunity to score more and have the ball in his hands and build the trust with him teammates. Without Johnson in the lineup, assuming he does miss time, Casey will lean on his regulars - DeRozan, Terrence Ross, Lou Williams, among others - to log more minutes, but hell more than likely stick with a 10-man rotation, with Landry Fields stepping in as early as Wednesday. Fields, a five-year vet, has appeared in just three games this season, all in garbage time at the end of lopsided victories. He was unavailable for two contests last week with a bout of the flu.
