Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta added several youngsters to training yesterday ahead of tonight's Carabao Cup tie with Brighton.

Arteta has stated he intends to field a strong line-up on the night.

Jeorge Bird's Arsenal youth website reports defenders Reuell Walters and Taylor Foran, midfielder Jack Henry-Francis and attacker Nathan Butler-Oyedeji, all of whom have yet to receive a competitive call-up to the first-team squad, were involved in the session.

Midfielder Matt Smith was also called upon.
