‘We are not in Disneyland’: Arteta warns Dowman of Arsenal’s demands

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has warned 16-year-old Max Dowman about the demands of professional football after the teenager's red card against Fleetwood Town in the League Cup was upheld, resulting in a three-match suspension. Dowman became the youngest player ever to be sent off in the League Cup as Arsenal were knocked out by the League Two side. Arteta expressed disappointment at the FA's rejection of the appeal and cautioned that Dowman was fortunate not to have suffered a broken foot from his reckless tackles.
