From the source

Fleetwood Town eliminated Arsenal from the EFL Cup; that's the headline. The headline is not that Arsenal got knocked out; it's that Fleetwood knocked them out.

The Cod Army absolutely deserve their respect. From Arsenal's perspective, it has been a long time since we've seen a performance like that. In fact, you'd have to stretch back as far as Lockdown Arsenal to recall anything like that.

Nevertheless, the point remains the same. Fleetwood deserves their respect, so here are four teams that could learn a lesson from the Cods in beating Arsenal.
