Why not rotate 10 people? 2-0! The 1.31 billion wealthy club has won 8 consecutive victories and advanced to the quarterfinals. The 15-year-old boy broke the record on his debut.

In the early morning of October 30, in the fourth round of the English League Cup, Arsenal played against Brighton at home. Compared with the weekend victory over Crystal Palace, the Gunners only retained Eze among the starting 11. Dauman, who was 15 years and 302 days old, became the youngest starting player in the history of the Gunners. In the first half, Kepa made two single saves. The two teams shot 3-10, and the Gunners were somewhat passive.

In the 59th minute, Skelly assisted Nwaneri to score. In the 76th minute, Saka, who came on as a substitute, made a supplementary shot to seal the victory. In the end, Arsenal defeated Brighton 2-0 and advanced to the quarter-finals of the English League Cup. In the last 8 games in all competitions, the Gunners not only won all but conceded only 1 goal in total.
