Ian Wright: 'You can't play in a final the way Arsenal did'

Ian Wright has questioned Arsenal’s performance in their 3-0 defeat to Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final, saying “you can’t play in a final like that.â€

However, Arsenal fan Vic disagreed, saying the gulf in quality and riches between the respective sides meant that the Gunners had no chance of reigning successful in Sunday’s clash at Wembley. He said: ‘You give them a tough fight, but you don’t beat them.’

Wright replied: ‘Wigan beat them, they can be beaten. You can’t play in a final like this.

‘If you turn up and play like Arsenal did then you are going to get beat.

‘But if you turn up in a game and you’re like Wigan, who in respect of ability are nowhere near Arsenal, and you’ve got the right attitude, drive, formations, determination and leadership on the pitch, then you beat Man City.’
