Mikel Arteta waxed lyrical about Eddie Nketiah in the wake of Arsenal's crucial home win over Jesse Marsch's Leeds.
Arsenal raced into an early lead thanks to a brace from former Leeds loanee Nketiah who put the Gunners in front just five minutes in when he closed down Ilian Meslier and forced the opener. The second came minutes later when the England Under-21 star was set up by Gabriel Martinelli before making no mistake from around 12 yards out.
After the game, the Arsenal boss heaped praise on his side's matchwinner. “Well he is doing what he has done all season, when he’s been sitting on the bench or sat at home – this boy doesn’t change that’s why we adore him, "Arteta explained. "Now, he has the right empowerment and the right personnel around him and he can be judged for what he does on the pitch."
