Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is confident his young
guns can go all the way in the Carling Cup this
season.
The North London side fell at the final hurdle last season as
Wenger's youngsters were beaten 2-1 by Chelsea at the Millennium
Stadium.
Wenger went with a mixture of youth and experience in the latter
rounds of last season's Carling Cup.
The Frenchman will not be doing the same this year after reaching
the quarter-finals of the competition with a 3-0 win over Sheffield
United.
Going one
better
"We still missed two or three players but when everybody is here we
have a good chance again because we have a little bit more
experience," Wenger said.
"But it also depends on the injuries. Last year I sacrificed some
players at the end of this competition and we paid for it in the
Champions League and the league so it depends on that.
"When you get to a semi-final you have two legs so you need a
little bit of experience and that's what I did last year and in the
end it caught up with us."
