Training: Monday Carabao motivation!

City were back hard at work at the CFA today with the focus firmly trained on Tuesday’s Carabao Cup quarter-final trip to Arsenal.

Pep Guardiola’s squad will step out to tackle Mikel Arteta’s Gunners seeking to maintain our magnificent League Cup record, with City having won the famous trophy for the past three seasons.

Spirits were understandably high in the wake of Saturday’s excellent 1-0 Premier League win away at Southampton.
