Arteta on Odegaard fitness, Sterling and Mourinho influence

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has been speaking to the media before Wednesday's Carabao Cup game against Bolton (kick-off 19:45 BST).

Here are the key lines from his news conference:

• On Sunday's draw with Manchester City: "I take it like a normal game - it was an emotional game, but they all are. I am looking forward to Wednesday. We have already moved on and are ready to battle again."

• When asked who is in line to play on Wednesday: "Let's see who is available tomorrow. Unfortunately there will be a few players unavailable. We have to wait for one of them [injury picked up on Sunday]"

• The Spainard confirmed Oleksandr Zinchenko and Martin Odegaard will be out for "weeks", saying the latter "unlikely" to return before the October international break.

• On the League Cup as a competition: "We want to win the game. We have to start with the first game - we have to understand what is the best team we can put out."

• On younger players getting minutes against Bolton: "It's a great opportunity for them to show what they are doing and transform what they are doing in training onto the pitch."

• On Raheem Sterling settling in: "He's been very good. He's had a few minutes and tomorrow he has another opportunity. He's hungry to get more minutes and impact the team. Hopefully we can see that tomorrow."

• When asked if Jose Mourinho has influenced him: "More than influence, I think you learn a lot from other top coaches and you try to understand why they’ve been successful. But if it goes in a different direction, do you have the ability to adapt?"
