  • Carra on

    Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher believes Arsenal have real a chance at lifting Big Ears - but not because they're the stand-out team.

    The ex-Liverpool centre-back said: "All four teams are the same.

    "Sometimes you’ll have a Real Madrid, Man City or Liverpool in there where you’d say they're one of the favourites.

    "I don’t know who the favourites are. Barcelona are really poor defensively.

    "Mikel Arteta is a brilliant manager, he’s done brilliantly well. We’re at that stage where he needs a trophy."
