Eze should consider himself unlucky not to have got his name on the scoresheet in the first half hour. The summer signing saw two good efforts well saved by Pope before Arsenal went a goal down.

Early in the second half, Eze showed another side of his game when he held the ball up strongly on the halfway line despite being almost on his back. Then, he had the awareness to keep the attack going and then get into the box to get on the end of Trossard's cross.

One of the highlights for Arsenal fans will be getting the opportunity to see Eze and Ødegaard playing in the same team as the Gunners pressed for a winner.
