Mikel Arteta spoke glowingly about Eddie Nketiah after the striker fired the Gunners to a 2-1 Premier League win over Leeds United on Sunday.
Nketiah took advantage of Illan Meslier's bad touch to close down the goalkeeper and force the ball home for the hosts early on during Sunday's encounter. He then doubled the advantage with a well-taken finish from 12 yards as he turned home Gabriel Martinelli’s low cross.
Luke Ayling was then sent off following a VAR review for a two-footed lunge on Martinelli before Junior Firpo's flick-on from a corner was turned in by Diego Llorente at the back post. It wasn't all positive news for Arsenal, though, with coach Albert Stuivenberg giving Nicolas Pepe a stern telling off from the sidelines.
