Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud believes that his side should make winning the Capital One Cup an objective after the Gunners drew League Two Bradford City away in the last eight of the competition.
The Gunners will travel to Valley Parade in the week beginning December 10 with a place in the semi-finals at stake after they progressed thanks to an astonishing 7-5 victory over Reading on Tuesday.
“We’re two games until Wembley so I think it should be for us, an objective,” Giroud said.
The competition is not a priority for manager Arsene Wenger but, for many fans, the end of their seven year trophy drought is a priority for this season.
