“We could see the quality of Arsenal,” said coach Oliver Glasner, who hands starts tonight to Nathaniel Clyne, Chris Richards and Daichi Kamada. “We could see especially in the second half of how quick you can move the ball, making the runs, how accurate they can pass in the gaps and so we have to talk to the players and we talked about it.
“From these games you can learn a lot and playing against the top teams. Of course, it hurts when you lose and are out of the Cup, but it’s also a big chance to learn and improve and it’s the best thing we can show it now within three days.
“I don’t expect 30 percent improvement within these three days, but in some parts a little bit, and then we want to get a better result.”
