Also lets not forget he either didnt start Lacaette or use to take him off after about 70 minutes, so I'm not eve sure he was convinced by Lacazette. If Wenger had stayed Laca probably wouldn't be here.

Another win which is good and the 1st time we've won our first two games since 2009!
Going forward we were pretty decent, Lacazettes' goal was very good as was Aubameyangs' (he looks so sharp at the moment). Ceballos looked decent with some nice touches and passes (shame we'll only have him for one season if he does this week in week out).
I think Nelson has potential, put the ball in the back of the net (although it was disallowed) and was quite direct.
I'm a bit undecided about Guendouzi at the moment as I'm not too sure what his role should be.
Liverpool next, who didn't look at their best and defensively looked a bit suspect, hopefully we can perform and get something, but it's a different level to what we've played so far.
Ceballos is a beast, sign him up
One thing yesterday proved to me at least is that we really dont need Generalissimo Xhaka to keep things ticking over in midfield. Nor Ozil or Mikhi.
Wasn’t the best game but we were in control. Ceballos was awesome, shades of a peak Cazorla.
David Luiz was also pretty assured, though I did nearly have a heart attack when he drilled that pass across goal!
6 points in the bag. Now for the real tests...
Torreira, Cabellos and Willock would be my first choice midfield 3 right now.
