Arteta said Arsenal will not panic after losing the Carabao Cup final to Manchester City and the FA Cup to Southampton, noting it is the first time the club has lost successive games this season. He added the side must rediscover its identity to get the campaign back on track ahead of the first‑leg Champions League quarter‑final against Sporting Lisbon, with goalkeeper David Raya returning after injury. Saka and Timber are still out injured, but Gabriel Magalhães, Declan Rice and Leandro Trossard are expected to play.
