2. Gunners get front-row seat to Caicedo show

Arsenal got a glimpse of what they could potentially expect next season if Caicedo joins from Brighton. While he was played out of position (at RB), the midfielder naturally drifted inside and was a constant problem.

His stat line makes for sensational viewing as he won the most duels (14), made the most tackles (five), had 67 touches, won the most fouls (five) and won possession five times.

Moisés Caicedo's game by numbers vs. Arsenal:

◉ Most duels won (14)
◉ Most tackles made (5)
◉ Most fouls won (5)
◎ 67 touches
◎ 14 duels won
◎ 5 x possession won
◎ 3 take-ons completed
