As far as Arsenal's Premier League form goes, March was the dream month for the table-toppers.
A 97th minute winner against Bournemouth sent the Emirates into absolute raptures, and there were 14 goals in 4 games for fans to feast on. So, Sporting hiccup aside, there were of course some fantastic performances across the board.
Arsenal's current front three have been firing on all cylinders as they've baffled and outworked opposition defences throughout March. Gabriel Martinelli stormed up the scoring charts netting 4 in 4 games, Bukayo Saka continued his imperious form with 3 goals and 2 assists, and Leandro Trossard properly claimed his place with 5 assists across the month.
So, it only seems fair that the three are the football.london nominees for March Player of the Month, and Arsenal writer Tom Canton provides the expert view on who he would vote for of the three.

The expert view:
"Despite arriving only two months ago, Leandro Trossard has been the perfect signing for a title challenging Arsenal side.
In March, he showcased his versatility by slotting into the centre-forward role and his five assists in four games mean he’s placed himself firmly in the favourite slot for the player of the month.
His relationship with Gabriel Martinelli in particular has brought back nostalgic glimpses of the first half of the season when a fully fit Gabriel Jesus would combine with his fellow Brazilian to create the Gunners’ big chances. The goal at Leicester City displayed how the Belgian instinctively took on the wide left role to feed an onrushing Martinelli to poke home the winner.
The best was yet to come, however, and his hat-trick of assists at Fulham completely stole the show. With Jesus now back, seeing how the dynamic between the pair will develop is exciting."
