Arsenal will face Manchester City away from home this evening in their attempt to keep their Carling Cup chances alive. As usual, manager Arsene Wenger will rely on his “team B”, with the likes of Aaron Ramsey, Craig Eastmond and Jack Wilshere all set to feature.

Speaking to Arsenal TV Online, the Frenchman said on Tuesday:

It will be a team that has a chance to win. But as well, I want to give a fair chance to those [young] players who have waited for this game.

I believe we have a good mixture of experienced players and young players but we will play young players that is for sure. It will be a typical Carling Cup side. For example, you will see players like Craig Eastmond and Jack Wilshere.

From Sunday we lost Sagna. is an ankle problem but he should be OK for Saturday.
