HIGHBURY hero David Dunn has set his sights on gunning down the Gunners tonight as Rovers aim to take another step on the road to the Worthington Cup final.

England Under 21 international Dunn knows exactly what it takes to breach the Arsenal defence after his two-goal salvo in the capital earlier this season.

And he has set his heart on a repeat tonight with a place in the semi-finals at stake for the winners.

"It was a fabulous feeling to score at Highbury, especially in front of Sven Goran Eriksson, and I'd love to do something similar tonight," said Dunn.

"But it's not about me, it's about the team as a whole and this is a great chance for us to put things right after a couple of bad results.

"If we're realistic, we know we're not going to win the league this year but if we can get through this game, then we have a great chance of going all the way.

"I know people say clubs don't take the Worthington Cup seriously but we'd love the chance to play in the final at Cardiff.

"At the end of the day, the Premier League is the biggest league in the world so we've got to focus on those games first and foremost.

"But this is a way into Europe and, if we could get ourselves back into European competition, it would be fantastic for the whole club because it raises your profile and makes it easier to attract top players."

Dunn's two-goal blast earned Rovers a hugely creditable 3-3 draw at Highbury in the Premiership earlier this season.

But even though Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has decided to rest a host of top stars for tonight's rematch, Dunn insists Rovers cannot afford to treat them lightly.

"I thought they had a lot of the ball when we played them at Highbury but we've proved we can score goals against them so they're far from unbeatable," said Dunn.

"Having said that, though, you only had to watch them against Aston Villa on Sunday to see they are absolutely brilliant going forward.

"They've got great players all over the park but the two that stand out for me are Thierry Henry and Robert Pires.

"Both are great footballers and they're so quick, you can't get near them.

"So we've got to concentrate for the full 90 minutes if we're to stand any chance of beating them because, as Villa found out, they are more than capable of blowing teams away."

Injured duo Garry Flitcroft and Stig Inge Bjornebye are missing once again through injury while Australian international Lucas Neill is cup tied.

But, otherwise, Rovers boss Graeme Souness has named a full strength squad which includes Martin Taylor, who missed the defeat against Leeds with a knee injury.

Rovers' squad is: Friedel, Curtis, Taylor, Johansson, Berg, Short, Dunn, Tugay, Mahon, Gillespie, Duff, Jansen, Grabbi, Hughes, Hignett, Johnson, Ostenstad, Filan.

Arsenal will choose from: Taylor, Tavlaridis, Keown, Stepanovs, Upson, Pennant, van Bronckhorst, Edu, Inamoto, Grimandi, Wiltord, Kanu, Aliadiere, Svard, Halls, Stack.
