Arsenal drew with Brentford in their most recent outing, but manager Mikel Arteta insists his side will be ready for their upcoming cup test.
He told reporters: “Every three days we are playing different competitions so we are so used to it. So we will reflect on the game [Brentford], take the positive, the learnings for sure that we have to improve and go on Sunday again with the energy and the batteries fully charged to go and win the game.
“It’s an opportunity for the team, again, with another competition, and the history that we have related to that competition, it’s amazing. We’ll play at home again. I’m really excited to recover and go again.”
Arsenal have not won the FA Cup since 2020, something Arteta knows the Gunners need to fix.
He added: “We haven’t been good enough on that day, and when you come to a competition, you have to be excellent on the day, and the rest, the shirt that you wear, or the badge that you wear, is irrelevant. So we’re going to have to prove that against Wigan again on Sunday.”
