Arsenal midfielder Mathieu Flamini is doubtful for Sunday's massive Premier League clash with Manchester United.
The French midfielder had to be taken off before half-time during the Champions League quarter-final defeat against Liverpool at Anfield on Tuesday night after suffering a knock from a Steven Gerrard tackle.
Flamini was replaced by Gilberto, but the Brazilian failed to influence the game in the same way as the young Frenchman had.
Arsene Wenger's side know they must win at Old Trafford to have any hopes of claiming the Premier League title, and Gilberto insists the players still have their belief despite recent setbacks.
He said: "We cannot lose our belief now - let's not forget we played a very good game at Anfield.
"Sometimes you learn more through the pain of defeat, although nobody likes losing the chance of making a Champions League final.
"And if there is a lesson, it must be that we have to concentrate to the very end."
