‘That would be very arrogant’ – Mikel Arteta says Arsenal players have no right to undervalue League Cup

Mikel Arteta says it would be “very arrogant” for his Arsenal players to look down on the EFL Cup ahead of their last 16 clash with West Ham. Arteta admitted the domestic cup is not a priority but insisted the Gunners “can’t approach it in any different way” as that would mean “disrespecting the game.” Arsenal face West Ham on Wednesday for a place in the quarter-finals.
