Okay so the Carabao Cup (which is the latest name for the league cup which has had more names than I care to remember over the years) is not the biggest prize on offer and it will certainly be the lowest priority for Arsenal this season, although I am not sure that is the right way to look at things.
From now on Arsene Wenger can probably afford to take it way with our big players in the Europa League as we are all but through. It will probably be a different story after christmas when the knockout stages come around but for now the job is pretty much done.
That would be a great trophy for the Gunners to win but any trophy is a bonus and one that we have as much or more chance than any is the Carabao Cup, so with Wenger having spoken about having a selection headache with so many fit attacking players available I do not see why we should not put out a strong side against Norwich City.
Liverpool are already out and there will be more Premier League sides going out this week and perhaps even some big ones as the likes of Man United, Tottenham, Chelsea and Man City have the Champions League to worry about and may play very weakened teams.
Let’s not mess about against an in form Norwich City tonight eh? Do you think Wenger should select a strong Arsenal line-up for this cup clash, as there is the small matter of silverware to be won?
