Manchester City won the first trophy of the season yesterday beating Arsenal 3-0 in a one sided Carabao Cup final.

City have become very used to lifting trophies in recent years and are only just getting started under Pep Guardiola.

For summer signing Kyle Walker, this was the first trophy of his career, and follows his switch from Tottenham Hotspur.

Walker was a losing finalist in 2015 with Tottenham in the League Cup and finished second in the Premier League last season.

The right-back did not want to end his career with no medals and took a shortcut to success by joining City, where he felt he had a better chance.

Already that decision is paying off, with Walker starting the cup final yesterday and collecting his first medal.

A league title medal awaits at the end of the season with City building up an unassailable lead, and they already have one foot in the Champions League quarter-finals.

Walker’s tweet highlighted his excitement and collecting his medal and fans of his former club Tottenham took it well, congratulating him and expressing their sadness that it was not with them.

After Serge Aurier’s poor performances of late, some even dream he could come back.
