Arsenal marksman Robin van Persie, who has been on the sidelines since last year, will be included the Gunners' squad for their Premiership game at Tottenham Hotspur. The 26-year-old was out of action over the past five months after tearing ankle ligaments while on international duty in 2009. The Dutch ace is expected to make his return at White Hart Lane but it's uncertain whether he will be given a starting berth. "He will feature, he is in the squad for tomorrow's game," Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger stated. When asked if Van Persie would be in the starting line-up, the French coach said: "It's a bit premature maybe so I will see, but he's in the squad, I haven't picked the team yet. "When I pick a player it means that he is fit and sharp and he has worked very hard. "Of course he lacks a bit of match practice but physically he is ready, he is fit. "There's always a gamble, I don't want to deny that, there's always a gamble in such kind of decisions. "But in his case we have been a bit more cautious because he has had a long time of preparation. "He is a very important player at this club and he is important for the confidence of our offensive power and he is a player who can contribute as well. "I am very happy to have him back. The sadness was that we lost him very early in the season. "Of course we would have loved to have him for the whole season."
