Gary Neville has admitted that he has been surprised by how well Eddie Nketiah has performed for Arsenal this season.
Nketiah has scored nine goals in 27 appearances across all competitions for the Gunners so far this campaign. The 23-year-old has stepped into the boots of Gabriel Jesus since the Brazilian striker picked up an injury at the World Cup.
Seven of his goals have come in the last nine matches since the season restarted, with his impact up front helping Arsenal maintain momentum at the top of the Premier League table. His high point came when he scored twice in Arsenal’s 3-2 win over Manchester United last month.
