Good professional game from us in the end. All the goals were made from youngsters aswell - Willock with a couple of assists, Nelson with a goal, ESR with an assist and Balogun with his first (of many) Arsenal goals. Was disappointed with AMN, thought he was disinterested at best. Nketiah was really frustrating aswell but there wasn't a lack of effort. He'll definitely be feeling the heat now though from Balogun's apparent emergence.
I'll have more on Nelson in his thread, but I thought overall Pepe was the best performer on the night.
He has the skillset to be a solid RB, but the nonchalant displays in games like these are troublesome.
A snapshot of this Arsenal team, only seem up for it in big games.
Glad that Nelson was looking a LOT more confident today. With Pepe gone for 3 games and Laca being as bad as he’s been, he has a shot to nail down a wing spot.
