Hey there, my fellow fans of football, there are scheduling issues arising at the Arsenal League Cup, according to sources. The issue that Arsenal is handling, not so simply, is going to be the center of today’s talk.
The League Cup Issue
Just for a moment, imagine the scenario that you are trying to play the most favorite video game of yours while doing your homework, going to soccer practice, and doing chores all at the same time! That is the exact case with Arsenal now! In addition to the Premier League and the Champions League (which is undoubtedly the most glamorous tournament ever!), they have the League Cup too, of course, making it really hard for them to schedule their matches.
What makes the League Cup such a headache?
The League Cup ranks among the tournaments in whereby the loser gets eliminated from the competition. This would mean playing at certain times every three or four days! It is surely a big challenge for the players who are concerned about their fitness!

What Does This Mean for Arsenal?
This is a question that the manager of Arsenal, Mikel Arteta, has to ponder very seriously. He has a rotation policy where he prepares certain players for every match that he has decided on. He may even have to do this for one or two of his star players on the ground in order to stop them from getting too tired or injured.
