The Gunners boss opted to rest a number of first-team
regulars for the game at Emirates Stadium, including Mesut Ozil, who
watched his team-mates in action from the stands.
Arsenal are
currently without a host of players due to injury, including the likes of Alexis Sanchez,
Francis Coquelin and Santi Cazorla.
Speaking to the media after Saturday’s cup win, Wenger
confirmed that the north London side had not suffered any fresh setbacks as
they now turn their attentions to Wednesday’s crunch clash with Liverpool at
Anfield.
Wenger told reporters at his post-match news conference
at Emirates Stadium: “I believe that the next step is to get Tomas Rosicky
back, Danny Welbeck back, Alexis Sanchez back, Jack Wilshere back
and maybe we will get one player in.
“Overall, I think we have no new injuries so I’m not
worried. If we had the same number of injuries we would be a bit short.”
