After Arsenal defeated Port Vier 2-0 to advance to the next round of the League Cup, Redknapp Jr. commented on Arsenal.

He said: "Arsenal need to start accumulating momentum, they are 5 points behind Liverpool. Arteta got what he wanted in the transfer market, he did a good job, but now he needs to win the trophy."

"The pressure is coming, this Arsenal squad is ready to win the championship and can't keep throwing money at the team. It's not enough to have only one trophy since 2020, Arsenal must win against Newcastle to maintain momentum."
