Super Cup Overview

Arsenal are out, and City sit at the top of the EFL Cup outright market. Everton’s kind draw at Fleetwood makes the Toffees value to lift the trophy.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has thrown his full support behind teenage sensation Max Dowman as the Gunners prepare for their Champions League clash against Slavia Prague. The 16-year-old midfielder is looking to move past a recent domestic setback and cement his status as one of Europe's brightest young prospects.

Arsenal midfielder Bruno Guimaraes has conceded that his trademark penalty technique is no longer fit for purpose following a string of high-profile misses. The Brazilian international faced significant scrutiny after his failure from the spot led to a shock Carabao Cup exit at the hands of League Two outfit Fleetwood Town.

Chelsea have suffered a significant setback in their defensive ranks as Maxence Lacroix is set to be sidelined for the remainder of the calendar year. The Frenchman sustained a serious muscle injury during the Blues' recent cup excursion against Liverpool, leaving manager Xabi Alonso with a major selection headache.
