Arsene Wenger has already said that he will be playing Sol Campbell alongside Thomas Vermaelen in this evenings game against Porto, but the Arsenal boss is aware that he cannot expect the 35 year-old to play twice a week at the top level.

He says that he will have to rotate Sol with Mikael Silvestre in the coming weeks while Gallas recovers, although he is not too happy about playing two left-footed players together.
