Timber hopes League Cup can be catalyst for Arsenal success

Arsenal defender Jurrien Timber believes lifting the English League Cup could inspire the Gunners to even more success this season.

Text size:

Mikel Arteta's men are just 90 minutes away from ending their six-year wait for a major trophy after seeing off Chelsea at the Emirates on Tuesday to secure a place in next month's final.

Arsenal are also six points clear at the top of the Premier League and through to the Champions League last 16 following an unblemished league-phase campaign.

They also face third-tier Wigan in the fourth round of the FA Cup a week on Sunday.

"We don't have anything yet, but we've put ourselves in an amazing position to win," Timber said when asked if winning the League Cup could spur Arsenal on to greater heights.

"The Carabao (League) Cup final is coming early, so maybe that could be nice for us as a motivation and a boost towards the other cups as well.

"It's not always possible to play your best. But this team does an amazing job of finding a way to win, no matter what. We have done it away at Chelsea, where it is not easy (to win), and then at home as well. So, it is very deserved.

"You could see how relieved everyone was and how happy that we are going to Wembley. And hopefully there are more celebrations to come."

Kai Havertz came off the bench to make sure of Arsenal's place in the final when he scored in stoppage time against former club Chelsea.

Havertz spent nearly a year out injured following hamstring and knee operations but has now scored twice in his last three appearances.

"Kai's presence within the team makes a big difference, but also on the pitch," said Timber. "Everyone can see his amazing qualities, and how happy we all were for Kai.

"He is a fun character. He is not quiet and everyone likes him.

"When he's not there, I think everyone notices that, so we're happy he's here with us again. I hope he enjoys this moment, and hopefully there are many more moments like this for him."

Arsenal next host Sunderland in the Premier League on Saturday, where a win could extend their lead over Manchester City to nine points before Pep Guardiola's men travel to defending champions Liverpool the following day.
