Two-goal hero says City are ready to hunt down Arsenal
Rodri feels Carabao Cup can be springboard in title race
Nico O’Reilly has stated Manchester City “smell blood” as they hunt down Arsenal’s nine-point Premier League advantage following Sunday’s 2-0 Carabao Cup final triumph.
Two second-half headers by O’Reilly defeated Mikel Arteta’s team at Wembley to give City the season’s first major trophy. Pep Guardiola’s side have a game in hand on the leaders and host them next month at the Etihad Stadium.
On CBS Sports Golazo, the 21-year-old was asked if he smells blood in the water regarding catching Arsenal. He said: “Yeah, 100%. The blood never went – we’ve always smelt blood. We’re confident in ourselves, we know we can do it, they’ve got to come to our place which is a tough place to come to as everyone has seen this season. So we do smell blood and we’ve got to keep going.
