Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says his exciting youngsters will get their chance over the next week.
Wenger will field an inexperienced line-up for their Carling Cup quarterfinal against Manchester City - and intends to d the same for their Champions League dead rubber against Olympiacos.
"The Carling Cup is a competition that is not one of our priorities, but we go to Manchester City to win a game," Wenger told arsenal.com.
"We'll play our young players in the Carling Cup, and some of them will play in the Champions League [at Olympiacos next week] as well because we are already qualified.
"For us it is important to win in the Premier League [against Stoke] because we lost two games, and that of course is a massive disappointment. And two games for the first time we didn't score. We are used to scoring goal after goal, but at the moment we aren't scoring."
