Arsenal fullback Jenkinson accepts Sagna backup role

Arsenal fullback Carl Jenkinson accepts his backup role to senior right-back Bacary Sagna.

The 21-year-old life-long Arsenal fan is more than happy to help whenever called upon as Arsene Wenger's squad look to press on.

"We have got four really good full-backs and so that means the boss can rotate when he feels it is appropriate," Jenkinson said.

"Bac has been playing so well this season it has been hard for me to get games, but as long as the boys are doing well, as tough as it is sitting on the bench, you just have to hold your hands up because we are top of the league and that is the main thing."
