    I like him alot, so much Arsenal flavour.

    That photo of him and his father in the away end at Kenilworth Road is one for all time.
    "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    Honourable mention for Nicolas Jover too.

    Best at what? Running into space - yes, I'll grant you. Decent finisher? Yeah generally. Defensive contribution? Excellent.


    But he isn't technical (nor does he claim to be) and is therefore ineffective against what we face in 80% of our PL games.

    Him and Trossard have been a large source of success this season. Definitely more than 20 percent!! More joy down the left than Saka and co. He just terrorises defences with his directness which is what we need because our so called Technical players are not really cutting up the defence are they?

    He's only 24 as well he's going to be really hitting top gear soon.

    Everyone seems to forget that bit.

    He's also got a lovely 1st touch when taking the ball down out of the air, not many better

    And that pass yesterday was outstanding. When he plays instinctively there's not many better.

    I would agree with that. But I think to define our 'best' player you'd have to ask for the one that we could least live without?

    I'd argue that's Rice, Odegaard, one of the two centre backs or Saka (even if he doesn't really put up the numbers - he's the physical emodiment of Arteta's project and synonymous with the club).
