SOUNESS is hoping to have a virtually full-strength squad to pick from for the visit of the Gunners on Saturday.

Damien Duff, Craig Short and Hakan Sukur are all contention for possible starting places but the Rovers boss does have a slight doubt about Dunn who felt his hamstring in training at the end of last week.

The England midfielder was set to miss training today as a precautionary measure but Souness is hopeful he will be fit in time for the weekend after scoring twice in his last two appearances.

"We've got to be cautious with David given the problems he's had recently," added Souness.

Rovers are now back in England following their short break in Marbella and they will spend the rest of the week at Brockhall preparing for the visit of the Gunners.

Neill will miss Saturday's game through suspension and David Thompson is still sidelined with a knee injury.

Rovers' two Academy teams both enjoyed excellent wins at the weekend.

Rob Kelly's Under 19s thrashed Sunderland 4-0 but the Under 17s went one better by thumping Millwall 5-0.
