(Reuters) - Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud has been ruled out of Friday's Premier League match against fierce rivals Liverpool with a hamstring injury, manager Arsene Wenger has said. "It doesn't look very good for him," Wenger told reporters after the victory. That will happen on Thursday, then we'll have a precise kind of grade on what his hamstring is. "When you listen to him, the pain is quite big, but the grade is not always linked with the intensity of the pain." Arsenal are fifth in the league, a point and a place behind Liverpool, and host the Merseyside club at the Emirates.
