Is it time Arsenal took the Carabao Cup seriously?

Arsenal has been drawn against Bolton in the third round of the Carabao Cup, which many feel to be an easy matchup.

The Trotters now play in League One, three tiers below Mikel Arteta's side, therefore the Gunners are clear favourites to win the game.

Arsenal won the FA Cup and the Community Shield after Arteta took over as manager. However, its fans have hoped for a major trophy such as the Premier League or the Champions League.

For many fans, winning a trophy by the end of the season would represent considerable improvement, and the Carabao Cup provides the first opportunity to accomplish so.

The competition ranks third in the list of domestic trophies that Arsenal can win, and some clubs do not prioritize it. Should Mikel Arteta and his teammates focus on winning?

The Gunners have come close to winning the Premier League twice in a row but have fallen short, and it is easy to see why the Carabao Cup is not regarded as vital, but a trophy is a trophy, and if Arteta takes it seriously, Arsenal must have a decent chance of winning.

We can win the Premier League and the Champions League this season, and our roster depth allows us to have a good team in the Carabao Cup.

This could help us win the trophy and put an end to our wait for some new awards.

Didier Deschamps plans to discuss France captaincy with Kylian Mbappé, as Ibrahima Konaté's popularity rises.

Will Kylian Mbappé (25) keep his position as France captain in 2025? It remains to be seen, given the Real Madrid striker's absences from the previous two international holidays with Les Bleus. According to L'Equipe, Les Bleus coach Didier Deschamps will confront the former PSG forward about his desire to continue wearing the captain's armband. The manager, a former France captain, reportedly wants to know if Mbappé feels the captaincy is too much for him to bear, and if wearing the captain's armband affects his time with his France teammates. According to the source, Deschamps is aware of speculations that Mbappé has considering retiring as France's captain. If Mbappé expresses his desire to remain France captain, there is little reason to suppose Deschamps will relinquish him of his captaincy duties.
