Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger insists he never doubted his team selection for their Carabao Cup win over Norwich City.

Eddie Nketiah came off the bench to score twice to earn the triumph.

And Wenger insisted that he had not been feeling the pang of regrets for not naming Alexis Sanchez or Alexandre Lacazette on the bench when he turned to Nketiah.

"The boy Eddie is a good example," he told the London Evening Standard. "If I had experienced strikers on the bench I would certainly have put them on and not Eddie.

"Here you have no chance to put an experienced player on so you try to find a young player who can give you a chance. [He came on] because there was no experienced striker on the bench."
