It's interesting you say it doesn't have a bearing on the Premier League.

I remember, do you remember like when Klopp's last season, when Liverpool were in this exact position, I think, where they were going for the quadruple, people talking about it.

They were playing great and they won the League Cup and then it all just seemed to fall away a little bit after that.

And I remember looking back a few years ago at what teams did once they won the League Cup because it's such a weird time of the season to be celebrating football.

And there has been generally a drop-off from various teams.

So if Arsenal do win it, it'd be interesting to see how he gets them to go again after winning that first trophy, because you'd presume there'd be big celebrations and it'd be a massive relief to get that.

to get that first trophy for a while.

City, of course, have won this eight times.

I think only Liverpool have won it more.

So it is their trophy in a sense.

So I'm really looking forward to it.

I hope it's an open one.

I'm not really expecting it to be that open.

I think Eberich, as they can have a big influence, obviously scored against City in the FA Cup final last season.
