Arsenal train ahead of Carabao Cup clash against Doncaster Rovers after news of Danny Welbeck groin injury absence confirmed

Arsenal's star players trained alongside some up and coming young talent as they prepare for midweek domestic cup action.

The Gunners are clear favourites on Wednesday, when they host League One side Doncaster Rovers at the Emirates Stadium in the Carabao Cup third round.

The game is likely to be a chance for fringe players to make their mark - including returning midfielder Jack Wilshere.
