Rednapp said Kepa was Arsenal's main mistake in the final
Former footballer and well-known expert Jamie Rednapp openly shared his thoughts on the events that took place in the English League Cup final. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

In the match, the "Arsenal" team suffered a two-goal defeat against "Manchester City". The outcome of the game was decided by Manchester City defender Niko O'Reilly.

He scored twice in the 60th and 64th minutes, helping his team achieve a victorious result. According to Jamie Rednapp, Arsenal's biggest mistake in the final was the choice of goalkeeper.

Many believe that since Kepa Arrizabalaga played in the previous rounds, he should have also played in the final. However, according to the expert, Kepa is not at the level of David Raya and therefore is considered the team's second-choice goalkeeper.

Not fielding the first-choice goalkeeper in such an important final match is a serious mistake, and the coach should take responsibility for this. Rednapp also emphasized the difference between Kepa and Raya.

He stated that Kepa is a good goalkeeper, but Raya is superior to him. Some may say that James Trafford is not Manchester City's main goalkeeper, but he made three crucial saves in the game and then does not face much pressure.

Kepa Arrizabalaga has not yet participated in any Premier League matches this season and has mainly played in cup matches. This situation made the choice in the final even more controversial and raised many questions.
