Bolton fans ruthlessly mocked Arsenal with Man City chant during Carabao Cup clash

Bolton Wanderers fans ruthlessly mocked Arsenal with a Manchester City chant during their Carabao Cup clash on Wednesday.

Arsenal beat Bolton 5-1 at the Emirates to book their spot in the fourth round of the competition.

Declan Rice opened the scoring before 17-year-old Ethan Nwaneri doubled his side's advantage. The youngster added a third as Bolton replied through Aaron Collins.

Raheem Sterling scored his first goal for the club following his transfer from Chelsea while Kai Havertz completed the rout.

The travelling Bolton fans celebrated one goal on the night, with their supporters even poking fun at Arsenal.

A video shows the away end singing John Stones' name.

Of course, Stones scored a dramatic last-gasp equaliser against the Gunners during their intense Premier League showdown.

Stones was one of few Man City players that aimed a dig at their domestic rival's 'dark arts' following their meeting.

And speaking ahead of his side's cup tie against the League One outfit, Mikel Arteta was asked about the supposed 'dark arts' employed against Pep Guardiola's team

"I always prefer the facts to words or supposing things," he said. "Let's see who is available tomorrow and then we can talk about 'dark arts' or these things or if it's a reality. Unfortunately, yes there will be a few players not available."

Pushed on whether any of those injuries were serious, Arteta replied: "We have to wait on one of them."

Asked whether the 'dark arts' tag was fair, he continued: "I don't know. It's opinions and that's it. But as I mentioned before I think other things will be factors and that's it. We will use the facts.

"[What are the other factors?] Well, if a player is faking something that means he will carry on and be involved in the squad and play."

Arsenal, who have recorded 11 points from their first five league games this season, face Preston North End in the next round of the Carabao Cup.
