Everton and Cojones next at home should get 6 points
Best defensive striker in the leagueLacazette with another excellent game as well I thought.
But then imagine if Alexis always made the right decision, he would definitely be a better player?
Best defensive striker in the league
He was steaming back to help out but at least 10 yards short of his marker when the goal went in.That last goal was so annoying. When being 2-0 up at 90 minutes you HAVE to prioritize your ****ing defensive duties Bellerin.. Its simply not good enough and he should know better.
Hope he gets an earful and learns, allthough i doubt it.
Im hoping it was more the fact Torreira got a knock on international duty that he didnt startDidn't see the game but three wins in a row is very good. Stats seem to suggest that didn't concede as many chances as before either so progress in that regard as well. Still weird how Emery is fixed to start with Xhaka-Douzi when he ends up making early subs to fix the midfield in every game. Maybe, just maybe, it's time to not start the same guys if they struggle to do the job. But nevertheless, three wins in a row!
The downside of this is that Aubameyang is wasted on the left. At some point Emery will need to look at stats to see if we are gaining or losing overall by this.Lacazette had a particularly good game again, he looks twice the player he was last season. Sokratis played well too. What I do like about Sokratis is that when you watch him he doesn't look like he's playing, he looks like he's working. We need that seriousness, especially next to the comparably childlike Mustafi.
Bellerin needs to read the crosses better. Literally 2 free headers at the end.Bellerin, Özil, and Lacazette all fantastic

He was on a goal a game last season when we weren't playing very well. I don't think we'll get the best out of him on the left and neither is the best at defending so to start both of them in every game is asking for trouble.It's easy to say Auba is wasted on the left, but we've seen him play centrally and neither he nor the team were any better like that. Plus it's not like he's not doing anything on the left. He's had chances, he just doesn't look like he's on top form right now.
Lacazette has played so well in the middle that you simply can't justify dropping him imo.
You're right, don't think Xhaka would've been able to stick that free kick in the net if Guendouzi had been stood on the pitch
That was on mustafiBellerin needs to read the crosses better. Literally 2 free headers at the end.
