Arsenal boss Wenger names kids to play in Cup tie

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is ready to play the kids against Capital One Cup opponents Coventry City.

The visit of Coventry City will follow the same trend as Wenger puts his faith in some of the Club's teenagers.

"Hector Bellerin, Kris Olsson, Serge Gnabry, Nico Yennaris and Craig Eastmond could be [involved]," Wenger told Arsenal Player. "All these players could have an opportunity to play. Ignasi Miquel will play. We will have a good mixture of experience and professional top-class players.

"We want to put out a talented side that has a good chance to win the game. We will give a chance to some players who have not played as many games recently. The players that did not play on Sunday [at Manchester City] will get a chance and it's a good opportunity for them to show they can do well."
