Wenger adamant Arsenal kids can win Carabao Cup

Published on: 24 October 2017

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is adamant his kids can win the Carabao Cup.

Wenger is set once again to unleash them on Championship side Norwich tonight in the Carabao Cup – despite the fact that his first choice side thrashed Everton 5-2 at Goodison Park on Sunday.

The Gunners manager, who has never won the competition, said: “I always used it to give a chance to young boys. We went to the final with a very young team and nearly won it.

“I always focus on winning trophies in the Premier League and FA Cup domestically, and always used the League Cup as an education for our young players.

“But with this team I have the squad to go further. Let's focus on winning the match against Norwich and then we'll see where we will go."

Norwich manager Daniel Farke says they can play under no pressure and look to create a “special moment" with a shock win.

“There is no pressure on us because 19 times out of 20, Arsenal would go through to the next round," said Farke. “There is always that one time though and that time is special. I like situations where people don't expect you to create special moments."
